Restoring Dignity One at a time...

One challenge faced by homeless Australians when living on the streets is maintaining personal hygiene. Some people shower at shelters or others in public toilet blocks, leading them to worry and think,

‘Who is around?’ or ‘Am I safe?’.

Our mobile service offers homeless persons a safe place to shower, shave, brush their teeth and restore their dignity.

In 2014 One Voice launched the first Mobile Shower Service in Melbourne; located at Rebecca Walk in Batman Park, our aim was to run a pilot in the city to verify an identified need before rolling out the service, during this time we found out that;

  • There is a  genuine need for access to showers
  • Peoples health is a major concern during winter
  • Current facilities  are dirty and overcrowded
  • Existing services are available at limited times
  • With NO access available on the weekends
  • An average of 18 people used the service daily

After we verified a need through our Mobile Shower Pilot in Melbourne, One Voice set out on a mission to build a fully self contained ‘World First’ Mobile Shower Bus for people experiencing homeless across Melbourne.

The new improved design would include:

  • Two private shower cubicles
  • A consulting table and chairs
  • On-board tanks for water supply and waste
  • On-board gas supply to heat the water
  • On-board generator for electricity supply

Through partnerships with organisations and the generosity of kind hearted Australians (like YOU) One Voice raised the funds to build this ‘World First Mobile Shower Bus’, we could not have achieved this without these generous contributions so that together we can restore dignity in peoples lives One Hot Shower at a Time!
