The Catalyst Nightshelter is now 8 Years Old!
“Making homelessness history in Havering” is our dream. Join us as we celebrate the 8th Anniversary of the Catalyst Nightshelter providing essential food and shelter to over 1240 men and women but also housing 657 people.
Did you know that if we lined all the beds we have provided end to end from Romford – they would reach to Southhampton or Leicester?
We couldn’t do the work that we do without the love and support of our local community. Would you join us in our mission by volunteering time or supporting us financially?
Thrive Community Housing
Our Thrive Community Housing provides support and housing to 27 men and women in houses, flats and studio flats. All the housing is accessed by the Catalyst Nightshelter. We soon hope to be providing 10 more units of accommodation.
Graham lives in our Thrive Housing said “After living abroad for around 12 years, I returned to the U.K. having been offered work which included accommodation, unfortunately; this fell through, which meant I had nowhere to live and no income.
I was lucky enough to be put in touch with ‘Hope4Havering’ who looked after me, giving me places to sleep (we were in different Church halls on a weekly Rota) food was provided and they helped with benefits claims.
Transformations Programme
The Transformations Programme aims to provide quality, comprehensive and compassionate care to men in recovery from all types of addiction including: Drugs; alcohol; gambling and other forms of addiction. We do this from our 6 bed facility in Upminster in Essex, from which we guide our residents through a rigorous and structured process of personal development– equipping and empowering men for meaningful and lasting life change.
