Help for homeless people
If you are homeless or are at risk of becoming homeless, the charity Porchlight (formerly known as East Kent Cyrenians) can help.
Advisors from the charity are available in the Gateway every Friday from 9.30am to 12.30pm to help the most vulnerable and isolated people access housing and related support services.
