About The Crossings
"We are a local charity providing support for those who are homeless or at risk of homelessness serving at the edge of the New Forest in Hampshire. We do this in two complementary ways:
Drop in Centres
We run drop-ins at three centres across the Waterside area. These offer a welcoming place to talk and help address visitors' issues as best we can. Whether facing eviction, living in temporary accommodation, sofa surfing or rough sleeping, our support includes:
Help getting back into accommodation
online applications for benefits including NFDC's Homesearch Register
Signposting to local support agencies
Hot drinks and snacks, charging & wi-fi
Drop in at Home
Going out beyond our drop-in centres, this initiative supports those recently who have been recently housed adjust to their new circumstances and helps them make a success of their next steps. This may be in practical ways or to offer a listening ear and encouragement to those dealing with isolation and anxiety and help them integrate into the community as fits their situation best.
A part-time Project Leader is employed to facilitate these services with a team of trained volunteers."
