The Nightshelter is an independent local charity supported by the Churches of Winchester, welcoming homeless people into safe and clean accommodation since 1988.
Its aim is to help homeless people by providing a safe, warm environment; a comfortable bed (6pm-8.30am); a hot evening meal and breakfast; advice and support; and vital assistance to prepare for and find appropriate move-on accommodation for permanent independent living.

We link with a network of national and local organisations to help our present and future guests at the Nightshelter. Our aim is to relieve suffering caused by homelessness.

• If you are sleeping rough or seeking emergency shelter, please get in touch.
• If you do have a roof over your head but would like to help others who do not, we are always on the look out for new volunteers.
• If you are able to help fund the Nightshelter or donate goods, your donations will be greatly appreciated.

We are always pleased to hear from anybody interested in the work of the Nightshelter, and are happy to show visitors around. The Nightshelter is a team effort that is only as strong as its volunteer base - so, thank you to all those of you who are helping us in so many valuable ways.
