ORL 10th Year Celebration Evening and AGM 2024

ORL 10th year anniversary celebration took place at Saint Martins House in Leicester. Supporters, residents, friends, volunteers, former trustees, and funders were invited to mark this momentous milestone with staff, trustee.

One Roof Leicester's 10 anniversary was an opportunity to celebrate the charity’s achievements with the huge support network at Saint Martins Conference Centre. One Roof Leicester started as a dream in Salma’s living room, where with Helen and Ben they dreamed of an alternative accommodation project for single people who were homeless in Leicester. It's hard to believe how much has been achieved over the 10 years, it has been an incredible journey.

All the work that has been achieved and continues is possible because of the help and support of the many volunteers, individuals, organisations, faith and community groups, businesses, funders, donors, staff and trustees.

A big thank you to everyone who has joined us on the journey over the past 10 years and we look forward to continuing to work with you in the future.

Thank you to all the wonderful speakers: Helen Hayes, Jonathan Kerry, Jacob Quagliozzi, and Krystof our former resident.
