About Shilhay
We have been working since 1967 to support people who are homeless and vulnerably housed. The charity has a successful track-record in the provision of local services in Exeter such as basic survival provision (food, warmth, shelter, healthcare), emergency night-shelter and direct access accommodation, meaningful activity, and community resettlement.
Throughout the last four decades Shilhay Community has supported many hundreds of people who have found themselves homeless for a wide variety of reasons to assist them to re-establish their independence and self-sufficiency within their local community.
Over the years we have continued to support and work alongside many other local organisations in order to ensure that the people who engage with our services have access to the necessary provision and support essential for their own welfare and development.
In recent years, as societal changes and family breakdowns have brought street homelessness to the forefront of the media, Shilhay Community continues to play a key role in promoting and actioning local initiatives to crucially support people in getting off the streets and into better living conditions.
