Story

The Swansea Night Shelter uses the Rolling Church model, where a different church offers shelter and hospitality each night of the week. These churches are bound together as a Night Shelter by a common referral system, and offer a continuity of care in the way they look after their guests.

The Swansea Night Shelter is geared towards offering Christian hospitality to people who are homeless including those who have been living on the streets. This hospitality is more than just tea and sympathy, more than a bed and safe shelter for the night. The Shelter also seeks to include a supporting and caring arm to help people to rebuild their lives: so we are making a real difference to people, offering through personal transformation the opportunity to move on.

The money that you will help us to raise, will go towards meals, activities and general care of the guests who use the Night Shelter. Last year, 2019 over 40 individuals were supported during the winter months and over 20 moved into permanent accommodation and we were able to help people with some small household essentials.
