PREVENTING HOMELESSNESS PROVIDING OPPORTUNITIES

Welcome to the Move On website

Move On believes that people in Scotland affected by homelessness should have the opportunity to realise their full potential and contribute towards society. This website presents the thinking behind our work, how we do this and gives examples of some of our work.

  • QUALITY - Achieving a high standard in all our activities.
  • CONSISTENCY - Ensuring our values are applied consistently throughout the organisation.
