Cambridge Cyrenians Providing housing and specialist support services for people experiencing homelessness in Cambridge for over 55 years. Changing lives...for good. 🏡🩵

Cambridge Cyrenians is a local charity working to prevent and relieve homelessness in Cambridge. For over 55 years, we have provided safe, stable homes and specialist support to people who are homeless or at risk of losing their home. We believe that everyone deserves a place where they feel safe, respected and supported. That’s why we focus on providing real homes - not hostels - alongside practical and emotional support that helps people rebuild their lives. https://cambridgecyrenians.org.uk/

Homelessness in Cambridge is complex. The support needed to move beyond it is too. We’ll continue to be here to help.Homelessness rarely has one cause, and it can happen to anyone.

We work with people at every stage of that journey; from safe accommodation and mental health support, to skills, employment, and community projects. Swipe to find out how we’re lending a helping hand.

Homelessness support goes far beyond providing a safe place to live.

Our Wellbeing and Independence Services offer the wraparound help that sets people on the path to stability and independence. Here is what that looks like:

🧠 Mental Health Service: Long-term, specialist support from a qualified mental health professional, working alongside housing to help people build confidence and a more secure future.

🪴 Community Allotment: Open every Tuesday and Thursday across six plots in central Cambridge, giving people a structured space to grow food, build routine and connect with others.

🏠 Older Homeless Service: Tailored support for people aged 45 and over, helping them move into suitable accommodation or remain safely and stably housed.

🗒️ Meaningful Activities: Helping people access education, training and volunteering opportunities on their journey towards employment and independence.

Last week, our Art Collab group tried macrame for the first time, creating plant potholders to take home. Not only are these arts and crafts sessions therapeutic and great for mental health for our members with experience of homelessness, they also offer new experiences, the opportunity for cake, coffees and teas and catching up with others. Have a look at what we got up to! 🪴

A few weeks ago, we put out a call for plants and decorations for one of our supported houses. You delivered!

Thanks to the generosity of Darwin Nurseries & Farm Shop, Cultivating Change and supporters at Horsley Hale Farm, the garden has been completely transformed with plants, seeds and furniture our residents can enjoy.

A huge thank you to Ana from CAMYOGA for giving up her time to run a free yoga session for our residents last week.

Moments like this matter so much for people experiencing homelessness. An hour of calm, care and connecting with others can go a long way.

Our residents loved it!

Yesterday, some of our residents swapped the usual routine for fresh air, sunshine and a picnic in Thetford Forest. We walked one of the trails, admired the trees, and shared stories. It was a great day! 🌲😊
