We strive to bridge the gap between animal and human welfare services. Ensuring that pets are not left behind in the fight against homelessness.
Demand for our services is ever growing due to the impacts of cuts to public funding, rising private rents, limited social housing and cuts to housing benefit.

Homeless people will rarely agree to go into a hostel without their pet choosing instead to remain in extreme vulnerability and depravation on the streets.

The Project Coordinator will support and develop our new volunteer programme, including recruitment and retention of volunteers, volunteer inductions, and training. Street Paws is a small team, and as such, we expect people to be highly flexible in their roles and willing to turn their hand to anything that needs to be done.
Responsibilities
- Promote the charity’s work nationally.
