Volunteers needed at KCAH hub
You may know that KCAH has run a Winter Night Shelter (WNS) for over 20 years. They are currently looking for volunteers to help at “the Hub” which is aimed for those that have difficulty within a more structured environment and situated in the centre of Kingston with free parking.

What would a volunteer shift look like? it would give you an opportunity to chat to people through the night, share some food, support people with any additional needs, play a game, watch a film, get new clothes and more. You will be the person who cares, the person who starts to build trust with someone which could result in a housing offer further down the line. KCAH need at least one volunteer on site each night with their paid staff, could you be that person? Please click here for details https://allsaintskingston.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/KCAH-Additional-Provision-3.jpg
Please continue to support KCAH to be able to offer sanctuary to those who ordinarily might not get an offer. Sign up for a shift and change lives. https://kcah.org.uk/can-you-help-us/vounteer
