"We do not just provide housing support. We Konnect the dots between people, services, and opportunities."
Who We Are
Konnecting the Dots was founded by two dedicated individuals with a shared passion for making a tangible difference in the lives of those affected by homelessness. The journey began when the founding director encountered a woman at a community gathering who revealed the heartbreaking reality of her family's struggle. She and her three children had been living in her sister's garage for two years.
Inspired by this encounter, the director took immediate action, working tirelessly to help secure housing for the family. This pivotal moment sparked a commitment to helping others in similar circumstances, leading to the formal establishment of Konnecting the Dots CIC.

Testimonials
"Back in October 2024 I was made homeless and was sofa surfing at a friend's home. Barbara never gave up on me when I was deflated. She went above and beyond to help me find accommodation. She spent days on end calling agents and finding landlords who accepted tenants on Universal Credit. I cannot thank Barbara enough for her support through this testing time."
