“We have seen a 50% increase in client numbers in the last 12 months. Many new people are coming to us for food generally and breakfast support / food for the day. Our clients are sleeping rough or in tents, cars, or caravans. It’s food support that’s needed”

“We know that accommodation, although a major concern, does not address all our beneficiaries’ concerns, this is why we offer a volunteer support worker for ongoing contact. A lot of renters have had to leave unstable environments and are parents to young children so we focus on providing a comfortable space where they can begin to rebuild their personal belongings and address other concerns.”
