Our impact

• 1,645 individuals received support across Glass Door’s services.
• A record-breaking 317 of our guests moved into housing. We also support guests after they've been housed, with a Tenancy Support Worker in post.
• Despite the many challenges associated with the economy during the pandemic, at least 47 guests found work.
• 199 individuals found a safe place to stay across two hostels in Central London.
• On average 75% of guests felt more optimistic about the future since staying in this new Glass Door Covid-secure single-room accommodation project.
• At least 343 individuals joined us for hot meals in our community dinner programme, run in four London boroughs. More than 400 volunteers helped to serve over 10,300 meals.
• Behind each statistic are hundreds of individuals we call our guests, each with a unique story. This past winter, at least 93 of those we supported were refugees or asylum seekers. At least 23 were fleeing domestic violence, and 10 were victims of modern slavery. Guests experiencing multiple challenges such as a relationship breakdown, past trauma, alcohol dependency and debt found help to address these issues and become more stable and self-sufficient.
