We always feel encouraged whenever someone answers our appeals for food or other necessary items, especially when that someone is new to helping us. That is why we were tremendously grateful when Mark at Limited reached out and his son delivered several boxes of brand-new sleeping bags recently. A shout-out to Andrew Nash at Gatwick Construction Ltd for introducing Mark and his company to us.

A summer like this one brings us a set of challenges. Hostel rooms are very hot, and we have invested in fans for every resident. Those sleeping rough and members of the street community are at heightened risk of dehydration, sunburn and heatstroke. If you can help us with supplies of bottled water, fans, sunscreen and sun hats, please get in touch.

They often bring a team of friends and colleagues to take over our hostel kitchen, and they did their magic again recently with delicious fried chicken and rice which was a big hit among our residents. Thank you very much!

People often ask how they can help. Here's an unusual way! We are proud to be a beneficiary charity for the Greater Haywards Heath Bike Ride on Sunday 6th September in and around the town. We have been asked to supply some route marshals for a few hours at various marker points around West Sussex, and we need some more, please. Ideally in pairs and with their own transport - all required instruction will be provided. Please email [email protected] if you can help. If you'd like to ride in the event, visit https://shorturl.at/mbar0 for more details.
