Homeless charity Restart, which offers drop-in, employability and mentoring services, is looking for a partner. Restart offers a volunteer pool, mentoring training and management system and a unique employability service which matches clients to a diverse range of host partners to build key personal and professional skills. Restart has 10 years’ experience in the area.
The ideal partner would be an organisation who have a new or existing space to offer a drop-in and meals to homeless clients as a way to introduce rehabilitation programmes. Restart would welcome their partner’s resources to complement their own work and they must share their values of inclusion, commitment, collaboration and co-production. They have been primarily working in the borough of Kensington and Chelsea but their links would be ideal for anywhere in Central or West London.
If this could be you, please contact Nick Gandon on 07799 477758 or nick.gandon@aureus-sv.com . Read and watch more at www.restartlives.org
