The Living Room
A new initiative to support Great Yarmouth’s rough sleepers
The Living Room is a pilot project planned for winter 2016 / 2017. It is a collaboration between several local organisations and churches including: ComeUnity, Great Yarmouth Minster, Imagine Norfolk Together, Neighbourhoods that Work, Park Baptist Church, and the Salvation Army. The aim is to provide an inside space for people who would otherwise be out on the streets where they can be warm and safe. Visitors may choose to sleep or just to rest quietly. A very simple hot meal and breakfast will also be provided. The Living Room will run for 1 night a week for up to 12 weeks over the winter
Further information, how to volunteer, and detailed descriptions can be found when you download here
However, at this time, it is advisable to phone Anna Heydon of Imagine Norfolk Together on: 07471357072
