| The Doorway Project is funded by: NWDC, Westlea Housing Association, Zurich Cares, The Community Foundation for Swindon and Wiltshire, and Chippenham Churches Together.
|
|
| North Wiltshire Homelessness Project was set up by CVS North Wiltshire and The Salvation Army, Chippenham Corps in 2003 to find out more about homelessness in our area.
|
| In January we opened a drop-in centre for homeless adults at our premises in Chippenham town centre providing a hot meal, laundry facilities and one to one support.
|
| We quickly realised that many of our guests have complex needs such as mental health problems, debts, substance use and educational needs, which are likely to affect their ability to hold down a job and tenancy.
|
|
| Doorway is a new venture based on what we learnt during our 2-year pilot scheme.
| |
| The title reflects the fact that our door is open to homeless guests and also to those who have problems which affect their ability to cope with work and a tenancy.
| |
| Our new emphasis is on meaningful activities to help people learn skills which will help them move on in their lives.
