Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness – and we campaign to prevent it in the first place. We can’t do this alone – we need your help. We’re always on the look-out to hire passionate and dedicated people with expert knowledge, experience and talent to help us achieve our vision of a safe, secure and affordable home for everyone. We offer a huge range of roles across the organisation and throughout the UK, so whatever you do, wherever you are, you can join us and make our vision a reality. HELP AND ADVICE Shelter provides free, confidential advice to people with all kinds of housing problems. Face-to-face, over the phone and online, we’re committed to giving expert advice and support, tailored to the individual. FIGHTING FOR CHANGE Shelter tackles the root causes of the housing crisis by challenging the people in power to make our vision of a home for everyone a reality. We lobby the government and local authorities for new laws and policies, and more investment, to improve the lives of homeless and badly housed people. Our influential campaigns bring the reality of the housing crisis to the attention of the media and the public, who help us fight for solutions. INFORMING PROFESSIONALS As the UK’s leading housing and homelessness charity, we develop practical solutions to address the housing crisis. We also work with the housing sector to promote good practice, publish reports, and deliver professional training.
