In the charity's own words
We seek to provide community space and other services for those who don't have homes, who may be refugees, or who are otherwise in need. In doing this, we work closely with St Peter's Norbiton, an Anglican Church in Kingston. We also provide office space for an organisation that serves the homeless.
