Welcome to our blog. Please check back regularly for all the latest news about WSUP and the work we’re doing in our local community.
Marie, WSUP’s longest-standing volunteer, shares her experiences.
I’m Darek (DAH-rek Kar-VAT-skee) and I am delighted to join Woolwich Service Users Project as a new CEO!
With over 15 years of experience working with individuals facing homelessness — including victims of domestic abuse, modern slavery, human trafficking, refugees and failed asylum seekers — I bring a deep commitment to this cause.
Jas Sahota, WSUP’s Head of Operations and Community Relations Manager, shares his story of addiction and recovery.
Democracy Drive aims to increase low voter turnout in Woolwich and the wider borough of Greenwich, particularly among homeless people.
David Cordery, WSUP Trustee and Director of Max Communications, tells us why his company is committed to supporting WSUP and making a positive difference in our community.
“If I had to sum up WSUP in a few words they would be: happiness, optimism, encouragement, wellness, inspiration.” WSUP guest Brenda shares her experiences of coming to our drop-in sessions.
WSUP guest Glen shares his story of homelessness and survival. “When my relationship broke up I had to move out and I had nowhere to go. I ended up on the streets for over a year. Homelessness is not a choice.”
Recently we were visited by Charlie, Greenwich Council’s Rough Sleeping Coordinator. She came to give WSUP volunteers a talk about rough sleeping in the borough. I knew there was a housing crisis but I didn’t realise the scale of the problem.
