About Cyrenians

At Cyrenians we take a public health approach to homelessness prevention. We know homelessness impacts on the health of the nation, on the outcomes of our young people, on the life expectancies of people living in dangerous, lonely and precarious circumstances. A public health approach strives to stop people becoming homeless by addressing risk factors and offering support at the earliest opportunity rather than waiting until a crisis happens.

That’s why all our work is values-led and relationships-based. Read about our values here.
