The Glasgow Simon Community is a Scottish charity (No.: SCO 03076) that provides streetwork, accommodation, information & advice, resettlement and training to people who are homeless.
We do not just provide accommodation. We address the wider needs of the people we work with, recognizing that many do not just lack a roof over their head but have additional needs to be addressed.
