Day Centre
Based at Knightrider St, we offer:
1. emergency respite from the street – a shower, hot meal, and laundry available while our team connect rough sleepers to the appropriate support services
2. create individual support plans – to put bespoke action plans in place to help people transition away from rough sleeping or temporary accommodation
3. essential services - we offer our clients the opportunity to see a nurse, hair dresser, osteopath, mental health specialist and other qualified professionals to help stay healthy and improve their quality of life
