About the Welcome Organisation:
Addressing homelessness in Belfast is becoming ever more challenging, particularly in relation to the increasing number of persons with high support needs who continue to ‘recycle’ through services.

The Welcome Organisation services are ‘high tolerance, low threshold’ based on the principles of harm reduction enabling ‘reach and support’ to the most disadvantaged men and women in Belfast most of whom would be difficult to connect / re-connect with services.

Volunteers are an integral part of The Welcome Organisation's work. They bring experience and skills which complement and underpin the work of our paid staff. All of our volunteers will receive training, supervision, and opportunities to progress their skills and experience.
