Shelter "is a charity that works to alleviate the distress caused by homelessness and bad housing." [1]
"Shelter was founded in England in 1966 by the Reverend Bruce Kenrick, who was horrified by the state of the tenements round his Notting Hill parish. The setting up of the organisation in Scotland followed in 1968." [2]
Campbell Robb started as chief executive of Shelter on 1 January 2010.
