Fundraising to support our winter homeless shelter

We are the Parish Church of Dartmouth Park, London NW5. Every winter we we welcome up to 16 homeless guests into our church for dinner, bed, breakfast and company. This is part of an initiative run by the charity C4WS Homeless Project which brings together churches from all over Camden.

Story

Every Friday from January to March we welcome up to 16 homeless guests into our church for dinner, bed, breakfast and company. This is part of an initiative run by the charity C4WS Homeless Project which brings together churches from all over Camden to provide shelter seven days a week throughout the winter months.

This work is needed more than ever and it has a real impact: last year we hosted 47 guests across the three months, almost all of whom found accommodation within three weeks.

The Shelter is run entirely on voluntary donations and the costs of food, cleaning and heating rise every year: we expect our additional heating bill alone to be nearly £2,000.

Our volunteers give their time generously. Please consider a donation towards our running costs - every £20 you can afford heats the church for an hour.
