Doorway - News - Doorway Project Review

The Doorway Project was launched in February 2006 and was based on the findings of our pilot scheme, North Wiltshire Homelessness Project. Now, well-established locally and with 2 years’ experience behind us we felt that it is a good time to review the project so far, to see what we have learnt along the way and plan the direction of our work in the next 3 years.

Doorway therefore held a very successful Project Review Day, facilitated by The Learning Curve who also arranged funding for the day, in order to review our aims and objectives and update our Business Plan.

Our work impacts on our community at many levels and we were very grateful for the involvement from the diverse range of external organisations in order to achieve our aims for the day.

The aims of the day were to:-

To produce materials, evidence and thoughts to update the Business Plan
To review the various challenges and opportunities for the project and what needs to be in place to address them
To describe what the organisation will look like in 3 years
