Our people
Hackney Night Shelter is led by a group of Trustees and a Charity Director, supported by a small staff team and many, many volunteers.
Our Staff
We have a small team of staff who oversee our activities and make sure we have the resources and funds to support our guests. This includes the Director of Hackney Doorways, a Shelter Manager and Advocate Workers who support our guests individually towards a more secure future.

Our Volunteers and Supporters
The real heart of Hackney Night Shelter is our team of volunteers who run the shelter each night and work tirelessly to raise funds and awareness of the shelter and its work.
We are also enormously grateful for the ongoing support of the wider community that provides key services for guests.
Without them there would simply be no shelter.
