Jimmy’s
Jimmy’s is a community-based charity with the belief that no-one should have to sleep rough in Cambridge. We provide safe places that people can call home. From emergency accommodation within the 25 rooms at our East Road shelter, longer term care in one of the 9 bedrooms at our multiple needs centre to 10 supported houses and 22 modular homes. All are important stepping-stones to independent living.
Within our centres, residents can access support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Once residents are ready to move into Jimmy’s supported housing they keep in touch regularly with their individual support worker. This relationship often continues even after the individuals are ready to transition on from Jimmy’s housing.
Jimmy’s aim is to offer targeted, wraparound support to promote mental wellbeing and help our residents fulfil their goals. We use evidence-based support to improve our services and impact and to be a voice for change.
