Marie has chosen to raise funds for The Shelter Trust and is taking part in 12 Parish Boundary Challenge: Shelter Trust St Helier Halo
The Shelter Trust was established over 25 years ago and is now the leading provider of accommodation and support services for the homeless community in Jersey.
The Trust provides accommodation, food, support / encouragement for 70 - 105 people per night at four sites in and around the town area.
The Shelter Trust was formed to provide services for homeless people in Jersey. The trust is a charity offering shelter, support and a way forward for homeless people.
At present we offer accommodation for over 100 homeless people from four sites around St Helier and St Saviour. We also provide an outreach service, offering food, hot drinks and support for 'rough sleepers'. The outreach service is provided in partnership with Jersey Homeless Outreach Group (JHOG).
At the other end of the spectrum of homelessness, we also provide an aftercare and resettlement service for those of our residents and clients who have moved on to independent living.
An additional facility, the Drunk and Incapable Unit, provides a place of safety for up to four people as an alternative to the penal system.
