St Mungos is not what they propose to be I am afraid. They just want people?s and government?s money. They do not end homelessness they generate it by evicting people they are meant to help and move on, they do not rebuild people?s life they destroy it by dehumanising and putting them through abuse, illegal evictions and discrimination. They might help very few people they choose to like the typical wrecks of society, forensic council clients with several criminal convictions as well ex rough sleeping tramps, alcoholic drug users to show off they have done good to the world when they are just a rip off. Also if you express your opinion or you have disabilities without being a wreck they just never ever want to help or forgive you (for something they inflicted upon you in the first place). They call themselves ST MUNGO?S but their actions show no whatsoever Christian principles, sense of compassion, forgiveness and genuine willingness to help most people they take in their premises. Please DO NOT DONATE TO THIS CHARITY which must be reformed or closed down.

I was homeless and living rough down in Hove, had a few charity people come up to me just to check how I was doing. Then, one day, I got a text saying I had a place at a shelter ( Smart Sea View Hotel, Hove ) and come along later that afternoon.From there my life changed around, great people and room. I'm in my 50's and started to get my health back in order ( Have a heart and vascular condition ).Despite the help given by local council and other charities I could not find somewhere in the area, from Hastings to Bath I applied for around 110 flats without luck. My worker then asked if I was serious about being willing to move anywhere to get my life started, I said yes. He then got in touch with AMRP Relocations and I'm now in my own 2 bedroomed maisonette up in Washington near Sunderland.He came up with me to make sure I was OK and even supplied a care package of bedding, cutlery and crockery.One of the major things that has happened to me was I went from only being able to walk around 200m at the hostel to now managing a kilometer. When I was sleeping rough could not do more than 10m.Thank you St Mungo'sThis is just a bit of an update, because I looked at a few other reviews.Still keeping my 5* review BTW :)In my 3 months at their hostel down in Hove I only saw one person evicted, and that was for gross miscontuct.There is a policy that once you are offered a place, you can either take it or be removed from the hostel.To be honest I was fine with that, after my social worker got to know me he asked if I was willing to move out the area. I said yes, I just wanted to get back into my own place.So I accepted the place they found for me 300 miles from anyone I knew. I'm very independent and used to moving around so was not a problem. However there is a general policy that if you are offered a place and you refuse, then you will loose you place in the hostel. To me I think that is fair enough, after all you would end up with a lot of the homeless just getting ' picky ' about where they were placed.

I was a resident at 1 of St Mungo's sites and have to be honest the staff are great in the majority. 2 members at NSNO were bad but at Willesden great.I was evicted after approximately 5 months in there care, nothing bad I got on really good with staff just I was offered a place in Crawley with Caridon Property services. I went over there with a member of Mungo's. Guys hanging out of windows of flats, and in passageway, window broken, 2 ring hotplate big one greasy/black. We originally went for the other property but last minute change. Have a look at Youtube, google reviews and indeed employee reviews and make your assessment. I have to be honest I was encouraged previously to view Liberty 2 properties (Jewish landlords). First was a hole, the second was OK but I asked the Jewish man for rent value per month/top up utilities, would not disclose. I was offered the place but I get just under £300 pm if they take £200 POVERTY. Was I moving into a better or equal place?? No?? Was it safer ..most definitely not?? But I turned down a property so evicted?? There is guys in here that duck/dive take drugs/alcohol and have never viewed a place in 5 months but the system says we have to help these people more. What hurt the most is some of Mungo's staff is fighting the argument after the most damning of evidence online (Caridon) and is it my job to make sure its a good standard of property/care or Mungo's. In some respect it is what it is if you are on UC in London get put in a big tub with every bit of sludge their is, unless to have 1-2k and a guarantor. I do feel sorry for the staff as its the system that is broken not St Mungos. A drug addict or alcoholic will be run after hand and foot and stay longer as they need the most SUPPORT but are they on a rehab plan, do they still take while on methadone program, do they get tested to show they are trying to get clean. Who pays taxes when they work, who does not go to prison, who does not steal/rob to get fix....WHO GETS FORGOTTEN....

You would think that when they hear one of their residents is seen being given crack to smoke, they would be concerned. But no, apparently not.

You will find a dedicated group of people who are honest, committed and working hard to end rough sleeping not just in London, but the whole of Britain. The aim is to help people rebuild their lives. It is common knowledge that homeless people are marginalised in our society. St Mungos has risen above that and the charity is working positively to break that negativity....by taking action in ending homelessness and rebuilding lives. I appreciate the strategy and everything that St Mungos is doing in helping the homeless, and hope that lots of people will help St Mungos in whichever which way they can. This is a great Charity....
