Welcome, to IHF
The Islington Homelessness Forum. This consists of a number of voluntary sector and statutory sector organisations and homeless individuals which meets eight times a year. It provides groups with the opportunity of sharing concern and issues with each other and working together to ensure effective services are provided for homeless people in the area.
There is a network of Forums around London. You may be able to contact a homeless forum in your area, such as:
Richmond, Ealing, City of London, Newham, Hammersmith & Fulham, Brent, Croydon, Hackney, Camden and Tower Hamlets.
If you are interested in Islington or want to get involved, receive information or bring your concerns about homelessness to us, welcome, you've come to the right place.
