Homeless support service Housing Justice has been awarded £92,400 by the Homeless Transition Fund to improve night-shelter services.
Volunteers will be trained and gain better skills to help their clients move onto suitable housing.
Volunteers across England and Wales will be trained to a Housing Justice Quality Mark (HJQM) standard to ensure consistency cross their services.
Alison Gelder, Chief Executive of Housing Services, said: “I am thrilled that we have been awarded this grant. It will enable us to help church and community night shelters take their services to a new level.”
