We’re recruiting! Join the Rainbow Centre team.

We’re looking for an experienced, compassionate and approachable Client Support Worker for our new Night Kitchen to help us provide a warm welcome, a hot meal and a friendly listening ear to people sleeping rough in Scarborough.

Working alongside our kitchen team and volunteers, you’ll help create a safe, welcoming space where people can enjoy a meal, build relationships and access the support they need to take positive steps forward.

This is a rewarding opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of people experiencing homelessness. Starting at 4 hours per week, the role will grow to up to 14 hours per week by the end of March. The starting rate is £12.71 per hour, rising to £15.31 following successful completion of probation.

If you’re caring, non-judgemental and passionate about helping others, we’d love to hear from you!

🏃‍♀️ A HUGE congratulations to Hannah Clarke! 🎉

Hannah recently took on the incredible challenge of the North Yorkshire Ultra Marathon in support of The Rainbow Centre – and what an achievement!

After an amazing 26 weeks of training, Hannah not only completed the challenge but absolutely smashed it, finishing 3rd place out of all the female competitors! 🥉

But that's not all! Through her incredible efforts, Hannah also raised a fantastic £843 for The Rainbow Centre. ❤️

Hannah, we are so incredibly proud of you and grateful for your amazing support. You've achieved something truly special, and your generosity will make a real difference to the people we support.

Thank you so much, Hannah! 🌈

Would you like to dedicate an event, challenge or personal achievement to The Rainbow Centre? We'd love to hear from you!

🥫 Every tin makes a difference! ❤️

Each morning, our van driver Kev and a fantastic team of volunteers collect surplus food from The Co-operative, Sainsbury's, Lidl, Tesco, and Aldi.

Their fresh bakery items, sandwiches and other ready-to-eat food go towards feeding our homeless clients who don’t have access to cooking facilities.

Our volunteers also collect your generous donations from supermarket collection points. Tins, packets and other essentials are used in our food parcels for local single people and families who need a helping hand.

Next time you’re shopping, could you spare an extra tin or packet?

Every item you donate helps feed someone in our local community. 🌈❤️

A huge thank you to Scarborough Window Centre for their amazing support with our shed refurbishment! 🙌🌈

SWC made us a set of custom-sized patio doors and fitted them today - all completely free of charge! They generously donated both the doors and the time and skills of their fitters. What a fantastic contribution! ❤️

This marks the final part of the construction work which was started by VIY. Next up are the furniture, decorations and CCTV before we can finally share the big reveal! 👀✨

Thank you, Team SWC, for helping us create this much-needed space for our clients. Your generosity means a lot to us!

🧥 WARM WINTER COATS NEEDED! 🧥

As the colder weather arrives, we are desperately in need of men’s winter coats for the gents who use The Rainbow Centre. ❤️

Our stocks are running very low, and we are being asked daily for thicker, warmer coats to help keep people warm during the winter months.

🙏 Can you help us? If you have any good-quality men’s winter coats that you no longer need, we would be incredibly grateful for your donations.

📍 Drop-off times: Monday to Friday, 9am–2pm

Every coat donated will make a real difference to someone who needs a little extra warmth this winter. 🧥❤️

Thank you so much for your continued kindness, generosity and support. We truly couldn’t do it without you! 🌈

Please share this post to help us spread the word. 💙
