Robes Project

For the last few years Copleston has taken part in the Robes Project providing people who are homeless with accommodation over the Winter months, and supporting them in the process of obtaining more permanent accommodation.

We welcome upto 20 people every Sunday night, setting up camp beds in the hall, cooking an evening meal, then eating together and socialising and playing board games until “lights out”. Each Monday morning  we prepare a cooked breakfast when the Robes Advice Workers then join us to help the guests with their search for somewhere to live, and then we clear away until the following week, and the guests would move on to the next church in the circuit.     

This project runs from November to March every year.

A Huge thank you to all our volunteers who support local people who are homeless.
