Central London, like many cities across the world, is an exciting and stimulating place. However, for some, it is a place to go when things have gone profoundly wrong and there is nowhere else.

The Connection is there to be with people as they overcome that isolation, recover and move on to a meaningful, fulfilling life. 

However, this is not enough. The experiences of people on the edge matter.Their story must be told to those in a position of power and influence, so that homelessness, exclusion and isolation are not acceptable features of life in the UK.

The Connection at St. Martin’s empowers those who are on the edges of society to take control of their lives by:

• Providing practical support in an active environment designed to help people to recognise their own strengths, recover from crisis and move on; 
• Collaborating with others who share our vision and mission not just in London, but other parts of the UK and the world;
• Sharing our learning with others, to deepen our own understanding and create a more socially just society for those on the margins.
