Shelter – Charity of the Month (December 2008)


Shelter is a great force for good in this country and thousands of tenants and homeless people will be forever grateful to it for its help.

As they say on their web-site “Shelter believes everyone should have a home. We help people find and keep a home. We campaign for decent housing for all”.

They offer some brilliant services. For example:

  • They have a free housing advice helpline – 0808 800 4444
  • They have numerous advice offices where you can visit for free help and advice
  • They campaign tirelessly – see here on their part in the recent assistance given to prevent repossessions
  • They publish an excellent magazine Roof (reviewed by me on Landlord-Law here)
  • And they also have many resources for professionals
