Mendicity Bee Houses

Mendicity Bee House

Established in 1818, Mendicity is the oldest working charity in Dublin. For over 200 years, we have been creating opportunities for people experiencing homelessness, isolation and marginalization, to live better lives. We help people empower themselves so they can work their way out of homelessness. We are inclusive, we are innovative, and we provide quality service to all who come to us.

The Mendicity Workshop is a social enterprise that offers employment to people experiencing homelessness and addiction. The purpose of the Mendicity Workshop is to offer employment and a route out of homelessness to its participants, while generating funds to support Mendicity’s core services.

Our workshop is a Community Employment programme, offered in partnership with ARC (Addiction Response Crumlin).
