Colchester Night Shelter is a registered charity which has been helping homeless people since 1984. The present Night Shelter, which has room for 20 men and women is wholly owned by the charity was purchased from Colchester Borough Council using funding from the National Lottery.


If you are homeless and have no where to stay then you are more than welcome provided you are happy to stick to the house rules. We open at 7.15 pm every evening and provided we have space then we will be able to accommodate you.

A big thank you to our supporters, volunteers and funders for making the Night Shelter possible.
