Aim

Mobile hygiene, shower and laundry vans for the homeless to ensure they have access to their most basic need – good hygiene.

The homeless are more likely to have dermatological problems, functional limitation, seizures, foot pain & decayed teeth.  Many of these ailments are preventable.

Due to limited access to places for cleaning, the homeless suffer the indignity of travelling in public in an unclean state.

In 2018/2019 Hygiene For All was launched to address this problem and reduce exclusion in the community.  The project is still in its early stages of development & adapting to meeting the needs of the homeless.

The Hygiene For All project consists of a Laundry Van, Shower Van and Hygiene Van, offering the homeless an opportunity to look and feel better, live healthier lives and prevent exclusion from the community. 

This project works alongside the Off The Fence Day Centre and Evening Outreach.  This not only ensures rough sleepers survive a freezing night on the streets but have access to basic needs and ongoing support into accommodation and employment to become an active member of the community.
