Four people who are rebuilding their lives after being homeless feature in a moving Exeter homelessness charity’s Christmas fundraising campaign, which goes live later this week.
Dear Mrs Braverman
As Exeter’s local homelessness charity we have taken this unprecedented step to write to a Secretary of State as we were surprised and disappointed to read your statement at the weekend, proposing to make it a civil offence for charities such as ours to give tents to rough sleepers.
An Exeter-based homelessness charity has been shortlisted for a high-profile national award, for its essential work to support rough sleepers in the city.
An Exeter man who rebuilt his life after hitting rock bottom, has spoken for the first time about how it felt and how he is now working to support young people in difficult circumstances.
Autumn will soon be upon us! We are very grateful for your donations of non-perishable items at harvest time, which enables us to provide home-cooked breakfasts and lunches to homeless people throughout the year.
Anyone for a cream tea?

The AB Brand and Marketing team don outfits and strike a pose with the St Petrock’s team.
A key Exeter homelessness charity has teamed up with a leading clothing retailer to trial a new business community initiative, intended to boost funding to help people without a home.
we welcome publication of the government’s strategy, released over the weekend – Ending Rough Sleeping For Good – and the promised new funding of £2bn over the next three years to achieve this goal.
We know that people become homeless for multiple, complex and often deep-rooted personal and social reasons. Those issues don’t vanish overnight when you have a roof – and even getting that far can take time, patience, perseverance.
Come along to the launch of St Petrock’s Spring Homelessness Appeal at our Petrock’s Place Hub and Shop on Paris Street on Saturday 19th February.
If Co-op members select us as their ‘local cause’, 1p of every £1 they spend on Co-op branded products when they swipe their membership card in-store between now and October 2022 will go towards StP’s mental health services.
This exciting project aims to boost local sustainability, re-cycle & re-purpose donations, provide volunteering and training opportunities, and engage with the Exeter community around homelessness issues in our city.
he first half of 2021 has been very busy for St Petrock’s homelessness teams.
2021 marks 25 years since St Petrock’s first opened its doors.
The Trustees of St Petrock’s wish to appoint a dynamic, inspired and imaginative individual as the DIRECTOR of our well established charity.
St Petrock’s is over the moon to have been selected as the winner of the charity category in the Exeter Living Awards 2021, in recognition of our continuous support of local people without a home in our city throughout the pandemic and beyond.
