Local homeless charity to close emergency night shelter

A local homeless charity is closing its emergency night shelter at the end of the month.

Graih has made the decision due to 'challenging circumstances' and 'growing pressure on staff resources.'

Broadway Baptist Church will also take over the charity's Drop-In and pastoral support work in the community.

This service will be open from 10:30am-2pm offering food, hot drinks, clothing, shower facilities and a safe, social space over lunch times.

Graih will be ceasing its operations and closing the night shelter from September 30.
