Story
11 years ago, the first Robes SleepOut was held. Its our major fundraising event, hosted annually by Southwark Cathedral and generating the bulk of our income. By giving up your cosy beds and sleeping out in the open air, you can help alleviate local homelessness, show solidarity, and make a difference.
We also have an amazing night of entertainment lined up. Bafta award-winning actor will be making an appearance. We also have the fabulous award-winning Gospel Choir Shalom Chorale performing.
This coming winter, we will be starting and continuing the projects below:
1. We will be providing Covid-safe static accommodation (individual bedroom with ensuite) for 18 guests every night at Davies Court from 1st of November 2021 - 31st of March 2022. Our aim is to support the stay and move on of 50 guests.
2. Our shelter teams will also be providing hot dinner service and support packages to our guests at Davies Court.
3. We will also continue operating our Tuesday Club in partnership with Holy Trinity Clapham where we will be providing advice support and hot lunch meals to 80- 90 guests.
4. Our advice workers will also continue providing a person-centred approach to help support guests out of homelessness.
