About us
Who we are
Housing Justice is a Christian charity working to alleviate homelessness in all its forms. As a bi-national charity we work in partnership with the housing and homelessness sector, refugee and asylum sector, churches, community groups, UK Government, Welsh Government and local government to help provide those experiencing homelessness with a safe and stable home.
Our work is channelled through a range of initiatives that aim to tackle homelessness in various ways at a grassroots level: Faith in Affordable Housing, Hosting people seeking sanctuary, Citadel, Support for people from Ukraine, and The Winter Night Shelter Network in England. Housing Justice Cymru is at the centre of the Housing sector in Wales and since 2021 we have played a pivotal role in the refugee and asylum sector, leading partnerships in support of the Wales Nation of Sanctuary commitment.
In addition, we seek to influence and bring about change for the benefit of those we serve through partnership, lobbying and networking.
Whilst Housing Justice is a Christian charity, we value differences: we are a diverse organisation, and we work with people of all faiths and none.
