The Snowflake Trust Limited

The Snowflake Night Shelter provides warm, supervised overnight accommodation for local people who, often through no fault of their own, find themselves homeless during the cold winter months. Guests are vetted by our (employed) Project Manager and a Trustee, and are then authorised to attend the shelter which is held at a different location across Hastings & St Leonards each night of the week. A cadre of committeed volunteers provides an evening meal of soup and sandwches followed by a period of games, chat etc before overnight and breakfast. Our aim is to suppert and develop our Guests' self esteem, and so enable them to change their lives and move into their own accommodation - this is facilitated by having the appropriate agencies visit the Shelter on some evenings.
