# Museum of Homelessness

> Museum of Homelessness (MoH) is a UK registered charity (No. 1164091), founded in 2014 by Jess and Matt Turtle. It is the world's first museum dedicated to homelessness, created and run by people with direct experience of homelessness. MoH preserves and shares histories of homelessness, poverty and social action, carries out independent research and campaigning, runs artistic exhibitions and events, and takes direct mutual aid action including an emergency cold weather shelter. MoH does not take government contracts, keeping its research and campaigning independent.
