Cambridge United Supporters Trust

This week we were really excited to have a visit from members of the Cambridge United Supporters Trust.

The group have decided to support us in several ways this year and turned up with a generous donation of £100.

We will be using the donation to go towards some plants for our newly designed Winter Show Garden (watch this space for progress on that.)

The group enjoyed a tour of our gardens including the vegetable plots, beach themed show garden and wildlife areas whilst we discussed further ways for them to support our community.

We will be featuring in match programmes and getting involved in a football tournament organised by the Cambridge United Supporters Trust members. So we look forward to and will be writing about more partnerships with the trust members throughout the year.

Graham's story

Graham* could not move on from Cambridge Cyrenians' supported housing for one reason: he had no valid ID. He would have been living on the streets without the help his Cambridge Cyrenians support worker who has been working with him from day one.

Jack's story

Jack* is self-employed, has been in recovery for 14 years, and he has just moved into a new home through HomeLink. It hasn't been a straight road to get there. Jack experienced homelessness once before, alongside substance use. A relationship breakdown a few years ago left him homeless again, and he moved into one of our move-on houses to start rebuilding.

Jake's Story

It only takes one change in circumstances for homelessness to happen. For Jake*, it started with a rotator cuff injury at work. He lost his job, then his home, and found himself sleeping on a park bench in the freezing cold on his first night without one.
