It doesnโ€™t disappear when Christmas is over, and it isnโ€™t something that only needs attention when Belfast is in the spotlight.

Rough sleeping is a year-round reality for people across our city. Every day, our teams and other organisations across Belfast are out supporting people who are sleeping rough, building relationships, responding to immediate needs and working alongside people to help them move away from homelessness.

As the Fleadh takes place across Belfast, we want to keep the conversation focused on what matters, people experiencing homelessness need support all year round.

Weโ€™re sharing this podcast featuring Susan Duncan, Head of Operations, who talks about rough sleeping, homelessness and the realities faced by people living on the streets of Belfast.

Listen here ๐ŸŽง https://open.spotify.com/episode/2tbTngurPveZk2fjf1ObVm

Weโ€™ll continue doing what we do every day - being out there, offering support, listening, and working alongside people experiencing homelessness ๐Ÿงก

Because rough sleeping doesnโ€™t stop when the Fleadh ends. Neither does our response.

With increased activity across the city, some individuals may become less visible or move from their usual locations. While our services continue to operate as normal across the city, we are asking for your support. If you notice anyone who may need assistance - or signs of rough sleeping such as discarded sleeping bags, tents, or cardboard bedding - please let us know so Outreach teams can check in and offer help.

You can reach them at 07894931047 or 07851246814.

Your awareness can help ensure that no one is missed during this busy period.
Let's enjoy the Fleadh and take care of each other along the way! ๐Ÿ’š

Our Assertive Street Outreach Team will be collecting donations from the boxes throughout the week, helping ensure every sleeping bag goes on to support people experiencing homelessness across Belfast.

It's a simple act that can make a real difference to someone in need, thank you to everyone who chooses to donate and help support our community ๐Ÿงก

Our final day in Scotland took us to Harriet Gardens, Social Bite's village in South Lanarkshire, which opened in April 2026.

A huge thank you to Amy and Jenny from Social Bite for the warm welcome, the tour of the village, and for sharing how projects like Harriet Gardens are helping people experiencing and at risk of homelessness build brighter futures โœจ

Our team returns to Belfast with valuable insight, new ideas, and strengthened partnerships as we continue working to develop innovative ways to support people affected by homelessness.

Thank you, Social Bite, for your hospitality and for the inspiring work you do ๐Ÿงก

Our team has had a brilliant couple of days visiting organisations making a real difference in the fight against homelessness.

Yesterday, we visited Bethany Christian Trust Welcome Centre, where we toured their Rapid Re-accommodation service and met with Service Manager James to learn more about the support they provide.

Today started with a visit to Social Bite Cafรฉ where we saw first hand, how social enterprise creates opportunities while helping to tackle homelessness.

It's been a fantastic opportunity to share ideas, learn from others, and bring back inspiration to help strengthen the work we do here at The Welcome Organisation ๐Ÿงก

Everyone deserves access to healthcare, regardless of their circumstances.

Our Mobile Health Unit delivers vital health clinics across Belfast and Derry/Londonderry, helping people experiencing homelessness access healthcare, advice, testing and support in a safe, welcoming environment.

Today, we're proud to wear our World Hepatitis Day t-shirts to raise awareness, challenge stigma and support the global effort to eliminate Hepatitis C.

Together, we can make sure no one is left behind.
