The Whitechapel Centre

We believe that every individual should be given the opportunity to change their situation and achieve their potential. We're open 365 days a year providing services to rough sleepers, people living in temporary accommodation and those at risk of becoming homeless. Last year, we worked with over 4,800 people to end or prevent their homelessness. The Whitechapel Centre works with individuals/households over the age of 16 who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, and/or require support services to enable them begin to address their housing and support needs. Wherever possible we work with individuals to prevent homelessness through the provision of housing and welfare rights advice and support; where prevention isn’t possible we work with individuals to identify and access new accommodation. We equip individuals with the skills and knowledge with which to set up and maintain a home in order that they may be helped to realise their full potential.
