Helping the homeless in truro during covid

04/10/2025

We need your support! 💛

In our resource centres, people experiencing homelessness can access clothing and other essential items. Often, when someone comes to our services, they can only carry a few belongings with them — which makes providing access to basics like underwear especially important.

We are urgently in need of:

🩲Men’s and women’s underwear (must be in new packaging)

💤Sleeping bags

Your donation will make a real difference. Thank you for helping us provide dignity and comfort to people who need it most.

Please drop off items to:
👉Truro Resource Centre, 8 City Road, Truro.
👉Breadline Centre, Bread Street, Penzance.

First of all thanks for coming to this page , let me tell you a little bit about how it all started ! I was out for my evening jog and came across some homeless gentlemen who were under just thin sheets , they did not ask me for anything however I stopped and asked if they were ok , they replied “ freezing cold “ I promised them I would do my best to reach out to people for donations of blankets or sleeping bags on social media and if not would still be back the next evening with some then went and got them some food I have been back nightly ever since , people have been so generous and I thank you all so much god bless 🙏 everything you donated was appreciated by them and all went to good use and I hope to continue to help alongside other charities and encourage anyone with helpful information to post on this page or if you have anything you would like to donate post or pm me 🙂 lets do this together no one deserves to freeze to death out there in this weather 💔
