Belfast And Lisburn Community Project Presents: “Homeless NOT Faceless” a Dance and Music Night fundraising event. Hosted By DJ David Lamont from Lisburn’s 98FM Address: WESTBOURNE GSC 3 Solway Street Belfast BT4 1HN 13th December 2019 Time: 7PM – Midnight ( Ticket £5 )

Figures published in 2019 by the Department for Communities and NISRA reveal that there are more than eighteen thousand households registered as homeless across Northern Ireland. Having been successful in securing funding from the Housing Executive’s Homeless Prevention Fund, Belfast Central Mission (BCM) is holding a thought-leadership and information day on Thursday, 12th March, at its Grosvenor House headquarters on Glengall Street in Belfast city centre, to raise awareness and encourage conversation around the escalating issue of homelessness.

To celebrate Shelter NI’s 40th anniversary this year, we are hosting an online panel discussion with the Imagine Belfast Festival of Politics and Ideas on common misconceptions of homelessness, what issues homeless organisations are facing during this time, how they are planning to continue to provide support for homeless people, and most importantly – what you can do to help! Speaking at the event will be a panel of experienced professionals, from managers of homeless support networks in the UK to those working on the frontlines. If you’d like to find out more, there will be a chance to submit questions at the end in an interactive live format.

Queen’s and Ulster University students will gather for a lunchtime discussion focussed on the previous evening’s event, ‘Home In A Time Of Homelessness’, unpacking theological perspectives on homelessness and how they can inform our practical approaches to this issue.
