We are Stockport’s open door. No forms. No judgment. Just dinner and a warm welcome.
In 2013, we were told there were "no homeless people in Stockport." We didn't buy it. So we set up a table in a car park.
Five people came the first week. Fifty came the next.
"We welcome football-mad Dads, latte-sippers, and bleeding hearts. We don't sanitize reality. We talk about addiction, jail, and poverty, but we do it with love, not pity."
Stockport, Not Salford
We operate across two sites. Please check the day and time.
What to expect: A hot meal, warm clothes, and a friendly face. No referral needed.
Services: Advocacy, Farsi/Persian interpreters, advice, and community.

Did you know? Many of our guests have "No Recourse to Public Funds." That means no benefits, no safety net. Just us. We are the gap in the fence. #EndHomelessness

"I came for a meal 5 years ago. Now I run the front desk." Peter's story is why we do this. It's not about the food, it's about the friendship.
We need pot-washers, listeners, chefs, and tea-makers. You don't need to be a saint, you just need to show up.
Email Ed to VolunteerWe are a micro-charity. We don't have a CEO with a six-figure salary. We turn £10 into a feast for 5 people. Your money goes to the street, not the suite.

Funds a hot meal for 10 people.
Keeps the lights on for a month.
