During these uncertain times, lets take some time to be grateful for what we have and care for others who may be suffering.
Our amazing support workers are still working away with our clients in our hostel and accommodation around the community. Giving them the safety and comfort that they need.

Homeless Oxfordshire are taking all reasonable and responsible steps as a non-medical organisation to protect our clients, staff and volunteers at this time of crisis.
