Who we are:

Our main drop-in sessions provide food, showers and basic services for more than a two hundred people each week, reducing isolation and improving health and wellbeing alongside our outings and small group activities.

We also provide focused keywork according to individual needs, supporting people to find stability and working together to improve their quality of life.

Established by St Stephenʼs, Canonbury more than 30 years ago, we continue to draw extensive local support, doing whatever we can to help socially excluded people feel part of the local community. Meet the team below:
