Available between the hours of 8pm – 9am for people who are sleeping rough in Cardiff.
Residents of the Nightshelter going through the stress of experiencing homelessness can:
22 emergency bed spaces, a communal living room, kitchen and bathroom.
The Cardiff Nightshelter is open 365 days a year – including Christmas Day – preventing 23 instances of rough sleeping every night.
We don’t receive enough funding to keep the Nightshelter open, we rely on the generosity of the general public to bring people out of the cold and into a place of safety and support.
This year, our winter campaign will help us keep the lights of this vital emergency accommodation on.
