HElp in crisis, hope for life.

Local charity transforming the lives of those facing crisis and battling homelessness.

We are a Richmond-based charity dedicated to helping those:

  • battling homelessness

  • facing food poverty

  • fleeing abuse and war

  • in substance and mental health recovery

  • crushed by loneliness 

In our busy modern capital, it's easy to overlook those in our midst who are struggling to find shelter, warmth, and sustenance.

Here, we see and spend time with the hearts, minds and voices behind the statistics, their dreams overshadowed by adversity, and their potential waiting to be realised.

We believe every person should be given the opportunity to thrive, no matter where they are coming from or the challenges they face.
