Outreach

Are you homeless or facing homelessness?

Please email outreach@kingsarms.org or visit our offices at 58 Harpur Street from Monday to Friday between 9-5pm.

You will be given an appointment time to meet with one of our team. It’s our aim to see people as soon as possible.

Supported Accommodation

Our Supported Accommodation Service offers short-term accommodation, a high level of autonomy, independence and tenancy support for a wide variety of people who have experienced homelessness and are moving toward independent living.

Pathways

Our Pathways team runs courses aimed at building self-worth, self-belief and giving people skills for life. Many of their clients have previously been homeless, are in supported accommodation, sofa surfing or vulnerably housed.
