C4WS is a church based ‘rolling shelter’ that provides emergency accommodation to street homeless, those at immediate risk of rough sleeping locally and ‘hidden homeless’.The project runs between 1 December and 31 March every year and has a capacity of 14 beds.

 

C4WS is a collection of different congregations  from various denominations with the same heart. To reach out to the homeless of Camden and provide warmth, food, security and hope. We have a set venue for each night of the week which is manned by 20-30 volunteers per night. Through the partnerships of local churches the project has a unique ability to meet the practical needs of homeless individuals in Camden and the surrounding area without discrimination or favour.

 

Admittance to C4WS is by referral only. Guests can stay for up to 28 days with the objective of being resettled into more permanent accommodation by the C4WS Welfare Coordinator in partnership with local agencies.

 

If you would like your church to become a venue or your congregation has people willing to volunteer please contact us. We would love to hear from you.
