Hackney Winter Night Shelter operates from January to March
We closed at the end of March 2009 and will re-open next winter
Our Link Worker continues to be available on 07549 043 728
You will not be charged for a call to this number
Hackney Winter Night Shelter was open from 31st Dec 2008 to 31st March 2009
In that time, we accommodated up to 25 people each night, a total of:
2143 suppers
2143 beds for the night
2143 breakfasts
165 different people stayed at the shelter,
including 18 women
We helped 72 people to find accommodation
Our Support Workers are continuing to work with 11 people
to help them get off the streets, and with other people who are
now in accomodation to support them in sustaining their tenancies.
Dear Guests
It was a joy and privilege to have you staying with us last winter.
At our Night Shelter Service on 25th April,
we lit a candle for everyone who stayed with us.
We pray you will find peace and security.
