The Lodging House Mission (LHM) relieves suffering and harm caused by homelessness, social exclusion and poverty in Glasgow.

The Merchants House has awarded grant funding of £5,000 to LHM to support their vital work.

They provide a safe, welcoming place where people whose lifestyles are often chaotic and lonely can access;

• nourishing food
• basic health care
• advice and support for their many complex problems
• relax and enjoy themselves
• learn new skills and gain confidence

June MacLeod, manager at LHM said “The donation of £5000 from The Merchants House will allow us to continue to support the community’s most vulnerable.  Our purpose is to provide a safe and welcoming environment as well as a range of activities to suit all ages, and includes the provision of a varied menu.  We want people who use the service to feel a sense of belonging, to feel less stressed and less isolated.  Coming here gives people the opportunity to feel safer and healthier.”
