Mission StatementWhitechapel Mission is dedicated to
providing a lifeline to the poor and homeless people of London who
struggle each day against hunger, poverty and exclusion.
Our goal is to
help people to help themselves, giving them the confidence they
need to become independent, which we do through practical support and
advice and by teaching them the life skills they need to
succeed.
We believe everyone deserves chance, regardless of their
background, race or religion.
We believe in keeping promises, which we
use to guide our work, 365 days of the year:
- We promise our service users that we will provide a
warm and welcome place for them to come, built on trust, belonging
and understanding.
- We promise our colleagues and volunteers that we will
give them a safe environment for them to work in and a real opportunity
to make a positive impact on the lives of the people they support.
- And we promise our supporters that every penny they
give us will always go directly to services and to support our
clients.
We know that we can, and are, making a positive and lasting
difference to the homeless who ask for our help.
