I am homeless
The C4WS winter night shelter operates from the beginning of November to the end of March each year. During these months, C4WS takes referrals for homeless people wishing to access the shelter from a number of agencies in the Borough of Camden and the surrounding area.
If you are in need of emergency accommodation, you can call, email or visit one of the agencies we work with listed below for an assessment of your situation. The agency will explain to you how the shelter works, and if you both think that the shelter is a suitable option, they can make a referral.
Please note, you must make contact through one of these agencies, as we are not able to accept self-referrals.
