Some of the people who have successfully completed training at Shekinah Mission, Plymouth
Shekinah Mission, based in Plymouth, is an agency seeking to support people who are homeless, have substance misuse issues, are ex-offenders or feel socially excluded. As well as seeing to people's physical needs - food, clothing and washing facilities - Shekinah offers advice and support, temporary beds for rough sleepers, an outreach service, as well as recreational activities and meaningful accredited training for those wanting to deal with their issues and move on.
Since 1992, Shekinah has grown and evolved into several projects - a Drop-In Centre, a Temporary Rough Sleepers' Hostel (The Gates), a Charity Shop, a two-tiered Training Initiative (The Steady Work Project), a Social Enterprise (Shekinah Trading), a Supported Employability Programme (PSEP), an Organic Fruit and Vegetable Farm (Growing for Life), as well as another Drop-In Centre and Steady Work Training Initiative based in Torbay.
