Day Centres Project

If you run or work for a day centre, you are probably working with people who face the most difficult journey from the street to independent living. Perhaps you have developed flexible, innovative ways of working, including outreach and specialist services, and work with a large proportion of service users with high support needs. You are also likely supporting socially excluded people to sustain their tenancies and break the cycle of repeat homelessness.

This project is designed to help promote and improve your work, to support you to network, and to share good practice approaches. With funding from John Lang Charitable Trust we are:

• supporting our network of 200 day centres to work more closely together, through regional forums and national events
• providing guidance and support to day centres to improve practice
• sharing learning with day centres and other agencies
• encouraging other agencies to recognise the value of day centres and to work with them to help end homelessness.

For more information, if you would like support for your day centre, or if you have any other day-centre related enquiries, please get in touch with Lisa Raftery, our Innovation and Good Practice Manager.
