Museum of Homelessness (MOH) will be opening its doors to the public on Thursday 17^th April 2025, for our Open Season. This is a chance to hear untold stories from the national collection for homelessness and support our life-changing community work.

Our museum has been created from scratch by people with experience of homelessness. Visit us during the open Spring Summer season to learn about the reality of what is happening in housing and homelessness and gain a glimpse into our world.

Our site includes not only the national collection for homelessness, but also a community garden, merch, art and refreshments with every booking. We are a living and evolving site, so come and experience a museum like no other.

We share our collection and museum through an intimate tour of up to 20 people and our previous work has won many awards including Temporary Exhibition of the Year (2022, Museum and Heritage Awards) . It’s no wonder people are calling it “the best museum experience in years!”

Visits are free, but booking is essential, but we welcome your donations to support our community work.

We look forward to seeing you all soon!
