Support Response Helpline 07842 174241
Mon – Fri mornings 10 am til 12 (Excludes Bank Holidays)
Welcome to our website.
We live in a changing world and so we have had adapted our projects and services to make sure we are fit for purpose not just for now but for the future.
We are developing a new model which is designed to help people not just get off the streets but stay off the streets by keeping a home.
Our goal is that everyone should have a home. The challenge is to make sure people fully understand what is required in order for someone to feel at home.
Our website will be changing over the coming months to reflect these changes, in the meantime please keep supporting us. See if you can find a picture of our Model Home elsewhere on the site!
We run a helpline, Monday to Friday mornings from 10 am til 12pm excluding bank holidays. We help people who may be on the street and vulnerably housed to access support and services available locally. We also offer a powerbank library service for mobile phones.
How do I help a Rough Sleeper?
We are all on a journey in this life and we want to help those who are going through a tough time on their journey who are sleeping on our streets.
It’s our journey too because if you just took 5 minutes to STOP and READ this, you could save a life. It could happen to anyone of us.
We are often asked “How do I help a rough sleeper?”
- To help someone in the best way is to give them accurate information.
- So much depends on the individual and also the time of day and what day of the week it is as services and support in any town will vary.
- It is unlikely (not impossible) in reality to get someone off the street straight away.
- Usually the best thing to do is understand what is available and give the right advice in the first place.
So in 5 minutes please read what help is out there and help someone get the help they need NOW.
“If we give the right advice today there’s the hope of getting them off the street tomorrow, it literally could be life saving. Remember someone’s journey off the street is ours too.”
