"If you had to spend just one night sleeping on the street, what is the one thing you think you’d miss the most?" 👇

For most of us, it’s the simple things: a locked door, a warm mug of tea, or just feeling safe when we close our eyes.

Every single day, our Rough Sleeper Outreach Team meets people in our community who don't have those basic comforts. Our mission isn't just about handing out a hot drink—it's about building trust, breaking down complex barriers, and helping people find a permanent way off the streets.
It takes time, patience, and a lot of heart. ❤️
We want to open up the conversation today:
💬 Drop a comment below: What basic comfort do you think we take for granted the most?
🔄 Share this post to help raise awareness that a little empathy can go a long way.
If you ever see someone sleeping rough and want to help, you can report their location directly to StreetLink so our team can find them and offer support.

Today we completed a large scale sweep of the district as part of our Snapshot Rough sleeping annual count. From rural corners to central town areas, we tried to cover as many locations as possible.

This marks one of the most significant events in our annual calendar and takes a great deal of planning and preparation.
Our approach means we will now seek further intelligence from many agencies to include anyone we may have missed on the physical sweep.

We would like to say a special thanks to Cap Care Wakefield, The Saviour Trust and Community Cabin Foundation for joining us on outreach very early this morning.

It is really is a team effort from all involvement. ❤️

Everyone deserves a safe place to call home.
This morning, we were out supporting the Rough Sleeper Support Service, searching across the Wakefield district for people who are sleeping rough.

Our aim is to connect with people who are experiencing homelessness and help them into safe accommodation as quickly and smoothly as possible, while making sure they receive the support they need.

If you see someone sleeping rough, please take a moment to report it using the link below. Your report could be the first step towards someone getting the help, support and safe home they deserve.

No one should go unnoticed.

We are so very proud to work alongside CAP.
The rough sleeper team attend several times a week alongside many other agencies.
CAP not only provides us with a base to see people where they feel comfortable, but also enables a multiagency approach to finding solutions to individual needs.
Those facing homelessness deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, CAP provides a sanctuary for this every single day.

More than 100 people a day rely on a Wakefield city day centre that provides hot meals and clothing for homeless and disadvantaged people

Did you know…. Once we have located those sleeping rough, we are usually able to make them
an immediate offer of emergency accommodation.
This is however only the first step in their journey to stable accommodation.
Referrals for support to many other agencies often follow from substance misuse to employment support.
Helping an individual to achieve their goals is a multi agency approach.
No story is the same ❤️

Having a safe place to store your worldly belongings can be a real concern for those rough
sleeping. Individuals sometimes are required to choose which items to leave behind each day in order to attend appointments, seek food or simply go to the toilet. Items they leave behind risk getting stollen, damaged or soaking wet through.

Once customers are into our emergency accommodation offer, we are able to provide a small amount of storage to enable them to go about their day much easier without this additional worry.
