Our vision is of a society where street homelessness no longer exists, and everyone has a place to call home❤
About us
The Passage provides resources to encourage, inspire and challenge people who have or are experiencing homelessness, to transform their lives. Working in Victoria, Westminster (London) where the concentration of people sleeping rough is at its highest in the UK, the work we do is vital. Our Resource Centre offers a wide range of facilities to those who are experiencing homelessness, whilst also offering support to those who are at risk of becoming street homeless. We have three accommodation projects offering a safe place to call home for those with complex needs, or to those who are in the process of finding a sustainable route off the streets. We are a voice for change and advocate for those who often feel their voice is not heard. The Passage takes its values and ethos from the teachings and example of St Vincent De Paul, a Christian and social reformer, who co-founded the Daughters of Charity in 1633. Vincent believed in action rather than words and in hands-on service to vulnerable people. Our Vincentian values drive everything that we do. • We assist homeless people to realise their own potential to transform their lives. • We act with compassion and kindness. • We are a voice for change and justice. • We build relationships based on trust. • We respect each other. • We are straightforward in all our dealings. • We believe in practical hands-on hard work. • We collaborate across all sectors of society.

Yesterday, our core team had an inspiring day at The Passage, a wonderful charity helping to end homelessness in London. 🏠 We reflected on our achievements from the past year, discussed future goals, and explored ways to give back even more. 💛 Afterwards, we headed to the lanes and enjoyed a fun bowling face-off (footage to follow)... It was a day full of constructive discussions and team bonding. We can’t wait for the next one! ➡ Discover how we support career transitions and talent retention: https://lnkd.in/eJHzVQ5p #TeamBuilding #HR #HRUK #HRCommunity #ThePassage #HomelessnessAwareness #EmployeeEngagement #WorkCulture #TeamSpirit #Leadership #CareerGrowth #TalentManagement #EmployeeWellbeing #Chiumento #InspireChangeSucceed Ian Gooden Duncan Hamilton Mike Burgneay Lesley Colella Mandy Alden Iona Lillicrap

On this EU Anti-Trafficking Day, we recognise the immense challenges survivors face, including the threat of homelessness as a direct result of their exploitation by human traffickers. Today we are making a call out for more urgently needed support services for victims of trafficking. Earlier this year, Depaul Ireland partnered with The Passage UK to produce a groundbreaking report revealing how homelessness organisations in Ireland are increasingly coming into contact with victims of human trafficking. This collaboration highlights the urgency of what we are dealing with and the need to act. Read the report here - https://lnkd.in/e_qrsSWm Since 2023, Depaul Ireland, in partnership with statutory and NGO partners, has provided Ireland’s only accommodation service for victims of trafficking. We're committed to helping survivors rebuild their lives with dignity and security. Stand with us today - reshare to spread this message. Donate now to support our work and help us to end homelessness - https://lnkd.in/esd3NSf
