“Being able to collaborate and work alongside corporate partners within the North Lanarkshire area has been excellent. Story Contracting Ltd has brought life into our gardens and nature areas over time, which has supported us to improve spaces and environments that are proven to boost people’s physical and mental health levels.”

Choosing Simon Community Scotland as your charity partner will help us provide information, advice, care, support, accommodation and homes to people experiencing, or at risk of, homelessness.

“Our engagement with Simon Community Scotland has broadened my personal understanding of the complex issues, needs and associated support the organisation provides across Glasgow and Edinburgh. I also, through my time with a Glasgow Street Team, appreciated that many of the people that find themselves displaced or in need rarely reach that place through choice and that Simon Community Scotland provide comprehensive packages of care with the aim to save and improve people’s lives with an amazing team that truly care and want to make a difference”.

“I would encourage businesses to support and get involved with Simon Community Scotland as you will see, first hand, the tangible and palpable difference that this incredible organisation and team make to people’s lives. You will quickly grasp a sense of humility and respect for the issues that face our fellow citizens in Scottish cities and will feel compelled to get involved and want to make a difference. Our staff have supported with sponsorship; volunteering; and supported the decoration of accommodation – the contribution doesn’t have to be financial but it’s equally precious to give up one’s time to help others”.
