Night Shelter Proves Big Success

Exeter's night shelter supported 194 rough sleepers over the winter and will open up again in November thanks to the City Council securing extra funding. The Greendale Investment property which has been leased to Exeter City Council, has provided a total of 3,239 bed nights and given shelter, allowing those sleeping rough to come inside on some of the coldest nights. The Shelter has allowed the City Council and its partners Julian House and BCHA to engage with service users and help safeguard some of the most excluded and vulnerable people in the city.
