Homelessness Week is a time to shine a light on the struggles faced by so many across communities who are sleeping rough. It's also a time to reflect on the fact that any one of us could experience homelessness at any time, for a myriad of reasons. To mark homelessness week, I took the time to visit the Liverpool Men's Centre. The Men's Centre is a service run by the St Vincent de Paul Society, providing crisis accommodation for men aged 25 or older, who are single and without children. This service operates within a client centred service delivery framework, with the staff operating on principles of safety, trustworthiness, choice, collaboration and empowerment. It offers a place for people to rest, refresh and access services. As Liverpool is a diverse community, it was heartening to see that the centre also emphasises a culturally competent framework to its practices. Thank you to the staff at the Men's Centre for all you do for those doing it tough in Liverpool. Although Homelessness Week is marked annually, I know their work takes place 365 days a year and I credit these fantastic workers for their continuing dedication.
