We are heavily dependent on grants and donations from the local community to fund our services, none of them a guaranteed source of income. A large proportion of our income comes from individuals, churches, schools and colleges, and charitable trusts with an interest in our work.
In addition to donations of money we also welcome donations of food, clothes and many other items, which help us to reduce operating costs significantly.
Please give generously and make a positive difference to somebody's life today.
As the winter chill sets in you can help us to come together as a caring community to make a real difference in our guests’ lives. The Gatehouse Winter Appeal aims to raising £10,000 for our much-loved homeless drop-in Community Centre and Café.
Why Your Support Matters:
In the bitter cold of winter, the streets become a challenging and often dangerous place for those without a roof over their heads. However, within the walls of the Gatehouse Community Centre and café we provide a beacon of hope. Every day we serve nourishing meals and provide other essential support such as sleeping bags, toiletries, and clothes within a welcoming space where our guests can find solace and a sense of belonging.
How You Can Help:
Donate via our JustGiving Winter Appeal page. Every pound counts! Your generous contributions will make a direct positive impact on the lives of those experiencing homelessness this winter.
Spread the Word: share our downloadable Winter Appeal poster with your friends, family, and colleagues. Together we can reach our goal and make an even greater impact.
Volunteer: your time and skills can make a world of difference. Join us in our community centre directly helping individuals in need.
Your donations to the Gatehouse Winter Appeal will ensure that no one faces the cold nights alone. Together, we can reach our target of £10,000 and make this winter a season of hope and transformation for those who are less fortunate.
What will your donation fund?
• A £10 donation will provide a meal each day for one guest for a whole week
• Make that £20 and we can add a shower, clothes and more ...
Thank you for your support this Winter.
