Anne Bishop
Anne’s interest in homelessness started when she saw an advert for Board members for a Christian Housing Association just as she completed her MBA studies in 2004. In addition to 12 years on that Board, 10 of them as Chair, Anne has also gained operational experience of homelessness through a variety of charity management roles.

Landlords
If you are a landlord with studio or one bed properties within the Borough of Harrow we can work with you to fill your properties and reduce the amount of time they are empty. We will do this at no cost to you; with a saving on letting agency fees.
What We Can Do:
Provision of tenants (assessed by us and references taken)
Setting up of Housing Benefit (Housing Benefit for our clients is paid direct to the landlord)
If you would like us to view one of your properties, get in touch on our Contact Us page.
