NACCOM was founded as a charity in 2015, following almost ten years as an informal network. The conference will bring together members, volunteers, supporters, allies and many others who have helped to shape our network into the powerful force for change that it is today. 

Attendees will hear from frontline charity leaders, people with lived experience, and other experts and advocates from across the homelessness and refugee sectors, as we look back on NACCOM’s impact over the past decade, and mobilise towards a future free from destitution and homelessness for those in the asylum and immigration system. As part of this, we’ll be launching the start of a process to co-design NACCOM’s next strategy and a public campaign to mark our 20th anniversary as a network in 2026. 

Attendees will also have the opportunity to share good practice, expertise and strategies encompassing both policy and practice through a range of interactive workshops, presentations and panel discussions.  

You are warmly invited to this face-to-face event at St Mark’s Church, Kennington, taking place from 9.30am-1pm + optional network lunch 1-2pm.
For anyone, voluntary or paid who is part of a church or Christian organisation who are working to support those who are homeless – whether night shelters, soup kitchens, day projects or simply caring for those sleeping in our churches etc.
A half day gathering, with Christian reflection, prayer, learning from speakers input and the chance to network with others. This year we are looking at how trauma affects many of those who find themselves affected by homelessness and how our church response can benefit from a trauma-informed practice.
