Our clients
Our clients are always the unusual cases, always on the margins of other services, always an exception to the rule.
Falling through the gaps
Our clients include sex workers, mentally ill people affected by Anti-Social Behaviour Order legislation, A8 migrants, chaotic young people, offenders, Irish travellers and vulnerable people who cannot or will not engage with other services.

Our clients typically present with three or more of the issues detailed in this bar chart.
