we want to share with you what we have been doing in our community.

Over the past 11 years we have supported our community with emergency accommodation right from homeless to people waiting for suitable accommodation to come available that fits their needs

Technically if you have stayed here your homeless which means you’re not here by choice that’s around 150 people if not more that come and go throughout the year, that’s a lot of people if you were to add the number of people over 8 years that’s a crazy number.

This building the old Balclutha Hospital is very much the lifeline of our community that people don’t see. Just about every agency has used this building for referring but we can’t name.

Everyone arrives with little or no money, we offer a bed, Food and safe place to sleep for as long as they need the cost is very little. The life changer is the possibility of employment with local employers as its rich with employment. No car no licence not a problem we offer employment support with work transfers. It’s all about helping each other.
