Clients who have exceptional needs may be provided with resources from the hardship fund. This is given at the discretion of the staff and is for emergency travel, electricity, gas, or where genuine need is identified.
We are able to provide emergency bedding, sleeping bags and tents. We also have a furniture store.
Fund raising events, such as sponsored concerts, sport activities, social events, etc., are welcomed. Gifts of dried and canned food for the homeless and those who are experiencing hardship are always appreciated by the recipient. Meal vouchers are given that can be exchanged locally.
