About House of St Barnabas 

The House of St. Barnabas is a place where compassion, community, and social change converge. Nestled in the heart of London off Soho Square. The organisation is committed to breaking the cycle of homelessness and supporting individuals on their journey towards stability, empowerment, and a brighter future.

Established with a rich history dating back to 1846, the House of St. Barnabas has evolved from a charitable foundation into a vibrant and progressive social enterprise. Our mission is to create a society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive, irrespective of their background or circumstances.

At the core of their work is our unique members' club, which seamlessly combines social impact and exclusive experiences. Their members come from diverse backgrounds, representing a broad range of industries and they share a common desire to make a difference in the lives of others.

Integral to their mission is the Employment Academy, a pioneering initiative that provides individuals affected by homelessness with training, mentoring, and real work experience. Through the Academy, they empower our participants to develop essential skills, regain confidence and ultimately secure sustainable employment. 

Working closely with partners in the corporate sector to offer a range of vocational opportunities, enabling our members to access meaningful careers and regain their independence.
