Coffee4Craig is a Homelessness charity that was established in 2013 by Risha and Hendrix Lancaster. The charity was created in response to the tragic death of Risha’s brother and has since been providing invaluable support to people experiencing street homelessness in Manchester, UK.
The Evening – Out of Hours Project
With an evening drop-in service that is open 7 nights a week, Coffee4Craig is a beacon of hope for those in need. Whether you’re looking to donate or volunteer, Coffee4Craig is the place to make a difference.
In June 2024 there were 1,759 total visits to our drop in, this is made up of our 404 unique guests that month. Of this number 91 people were new to our service. On average we had 59 guests through our doors each night.
Relief & Recovery (R&R)
The Relief & Recovery project is our newest program. Due to the increasing needs and complexities our guests are experiencing we have, once again, tried to meet the need and as such created the R & R project. Twice a week individuals who are on the program can attend for daytime support.
In the last month Coffee4Craig has supported 12 people via the relief and recovery project. Through the scheme we have supported 9 people through housing assessments and 7 people through bank account applications. 5 people have been referred to CGL for addiction support and 7 people have been referred to other organisations.
