Let's end street homelessness in Cornwall.

Our mission is to provide accommodation, support and advice to the single homeless of Cornwall. Often falling outside the responsibility of statutory authorities, the single homeless often are sleeping rough and may have a range of difficulties, including mental ill health, relationship breakdown, drug or alcohol dependency, or an offending lifestyle which contribute to their homelessness and social exclusion. St Petrocs exists to provide a diverse range of services for this particular group.

Why the community needs us

Our houses across Cornwall provide safe environments for 112 individuals to have a place they can call home. In Truro and Penzance our Resettlement Centres offer services including showers, toilets, food, clothing, bedding, laundry facilities and GP surgeries. We provide support to enable individuals to access a variety of accommodation and specialist support services.

Our impact on the community

Our St Petrocs Outreach Team aims to reduce rough sleeping, assist those with multiple issues in gaining the support they need, to contribute to community safety partnerships and help people to adopt a less harmful lifestyles. Our aim is to help all clients progress towards living independently.
