“I first heard about Spires when I was living in a hostel. They helped me sort myself out bit by bit. Getting my own flat was the real breakthrough.” Jack, Spires Client
Open to anyone who is rough sleeping, Spires' Rough Sleeper's Space aims to meet our clients’ immediate needs by offering washing facilities, food, clothing and emergency healthcare.
We also strive to provide an inclusive and flexible service to homeless and disadvantaged people that will enable each person to make a positive move away from a street-based lifestyle to one of more stability and security.
All of our rough sleeper sessions are supported by Spires’ specialist workers and specialist partner agencies. We connect people to a wide range of services including street outreach referral, accommodation and housing advice, and employment and benefit advice.
Breakfast, hot showers and clothing are always available.
Please note – no admission during the last 15 minutes of the session.
