Faced with the closure of our Chapel Street homeless hostel in Central London due to local authority funding changes in 2014, we decided to refurbish and expand it as a commercial venture to raise money for other services, including those for homeless people elsewhere in London.

SoHostel has been a great success with the building's central location in the heart of Soho and our friendly on-site team attracting backpackers from all around the world. Profits from the hostel are now used to help support projects such as Arlington and our Active at 70 group for older residents on the Isle of Dogs.
