What is Half-time? Support for those rough sleeping

Our Half-time service provides practical support and advice for those who are homeless and sleeping on the streets.

Half-time is provided at sites across BCP including at St Mike’s Church, Poole Road, Bournemouth, BH2 5QU.

The service includes: one-to-one appointments and advice, hot showers, laundry facilities, lockers, phone charging, and hot drinks and snacks.

We work closely with our partners at St Mungo’s and The HealthBus, as well as with Lansdowne Church to provide a holistic support service to those experiencing rough sleeping.

We help people to find more than a roof over their heads.  We work alongside people to find a secure home and supportive community where they can start to rebuild their lives, build strong relationships and look forward to the future with hope.

If you, or someone you know, are homeless and sleeping on the streets, simply call our Helpline below.

Appointments can be booked by contacting the Faithworks Homelessness Helpline on 07842 174241, Monday – Friday, 10am – 12pm (except bank holidays).
