Homeless Welfare Service

A project by The Abbey Community Association

Homeless Welfare Service

We serve hot meals every Monday and Tuesday evening to dozens of homeless people. We bring them in to our cafe where we have outreach workers to help put them in touch with essential services, and our friendly volunteers are happy to chat with them. To provide this service, we rely on a team of volunteers and donations of surplus food from charities & shops. Money donated will cover other essentials such as tea & coffee, walkie talkies, as well as paying a chef to cook regularly.

Why they need our service

Westminster has the highest level of homelessness in England, with 1 in 25 people having no permanent home.

Plan and expected results

As well as helping to meet the most basic needs of our guests, we hope to reduce isolation and put them in touch with other services to provide the support they need.
