Story

This will be our 8th year of running a Night Shelter in Horsham.

During the winter months from 1 December, guests are provided with a hot evening meal, a bed and bedding for the night as well as a breakfast before leaving in the morning. Showering and laundry provision is available, plus evening activities, and the team of over 250 volunteers is focused on improving the well-being of those staying over.

An outreach team works with and supports the guests with specialist advise, particularly looking towards the future and our aim of getting them housed.

The volunteer experience:

"I was really pleased to play a small part of making homeless people feel that they are worthy and treated as our friends"
