IHAG is the key to an independent future for single homeless people

IHAG is an Ipswich based, local Charity which started in 1976 in response to lack of accommodation for single people in Ipswich. IHAG's provides services for, and campaigns on behalf of, marginalised, especially single homeless, adults. Each year we deliver housing/hostel accommodation for 80 people, money and debt advice to 3,000 individuals and families, and walk-in advice and support at the Chapman Centre, homelessness hub, to 1100 marginalised, homeless and rough sleepers.

Ein heffaith ar y gymuned

An independent evaluation of IHAG Chapman Centre in 2016 found "No other organisations in Ipswich or around have wanted to take on this role and none have achieved the same integration of co-located services or acted as a homelessness hub, despite this role being identified as widely beneficial to clients and the community." The report also confirmed daily attendance average of 49.7 marginalised/homeless (clients), and over 400 new clients presenting annually.
