Positive Action in Housing

Positive Action in Housing

Positive Action in Housing is a Glasgow-based independent homelessness and human rights charity dedicated to supporting individuals and families from BME, refugee, and migrant communities to have an equal chance to live, work, and grow – free from poverty, homelessness, racism, and xenophobia. 

Through our core projects, we manage and deliver various services in the form of casework assistance, training, crisis grants, and free shelter to help our beneficiaries out of destitution and increase their skill set, allowing them to lead fulfilling, independent lives. 

Our multilingual support is designed to meet the diverse needs of individuals and families in the marginalised communities we serve. We have gained considerable experience, knowledge, and best practice over 25+ years of working with vulnerable people in these communities. This has helped us develop an effective, proactive approach to ensuring vulnerable people experience more positive, long-lasting outcomes. 

Positive Action in Housing is currently working tirelessly to meet the needs of a growing number of destitute individuals and families seeking assistance.
