Retreat

The History of Retreat

A new 80 bed Shelter was opened in Retreat on 20 May 2006. It will enable the Haven to provide temporary shelter to couples and small families living on the streets.

This shelter is designed to have self contained rooms for a maximum of 6 persons with own bathroom facilities. It is also envisaged that the shelter itself will contribute to the food security of the area by sharing excess food and capacity with local feeding schemes working with the poor in the local community.

Our Vision

“No one should have
to live on our streets”

 

Our Mission

To make available temporary shelter, rehabilitation opportunities, social welfare services, family reunification services, physical care and support to adult people living on the streets who are committed to reintegration.
To partner and co-operate with religious institutions, organisations, welfare bodies, service providers, businesses, government departments, local authorities and individuals concerned with the care and welfare of the destitute.
To promote community awareness of the social problems arising out of destitution and to encourage the participation of the public in the alleviation of such problems.
To reduce the opportunities for people to continue to live on the streets.
