I'm homeless now

If you don’t have a safe place to stay tonight or you’re already sleeping rough, we can help. We offer emergency accommodation, practical support, and advice to help you get back on your feet. 

Browse our information pages for practical guidance, or if you’d prefer to speak to someone, our Homeless Support Line is free to call and available 24/7. Our friendly advisors are ready to listen and support you.

Sleeping on the streets can feel frightening and like your only option, but you don’t have to face it alone. Support is available to help you find a safe and more permanent place to live.

Family Services – Emergency and Temporary Accommodation

Homelessness can happen to any family. We work in partnership with the Housing Executive to provide temporary accommodation for families until they are offered a social home or find a suitable private rental.

Adult Services – Emergency and Temporary Accommodation

Simon Community works in partnership with the Housing Executive to deliver hundreds of bed spaces every night for people who need short-term or longer-term shelter.

Youth Services – Emergency and Temporary Accommodation

Our youth accommodation projects are for young people aged 16 – 25 who need a safe place to stay while working towards living independently.

Staying on friends’ or family’s couches might feel like your only option, but it’s not a long-term solution – and you don’t have to manage this alone. There is support available to help you find a safe and stable place to live.

We can offer practical help to people at risk of homelessness, including support with housing costs, essential bills, and basic items needed to keep a safe home.

Our Community Support Service works in certain areas, helping people stay in their homes and live independently.

If you are leaving care or have left care recently, there’s dedicated help and support available for you. The Health and Social Care Trusts (also known as ‘social services’ or ‘the trust’) may be able to help you or have a duty to find you somewhere to live. Please talk to your social worker about your housing options. Get in touch today to find out how we can help you take the next steps toward a safe and stable future.
