Night Outreach
Fact: The outreach team had 3163 visits from the women in 2009
The women often make first contact with One25 through meeting us during outreach. Our van goes out 5 nights per week and provides nutritious food, hot drinks and a chance to talk and get advice in a safe space. We give access to a mobile phone to contact emergency hostels, information on ‘ugly mugs’ (perpetrators of street violence), warm clothes, personal alarms, first aid, condoms and more. Once a week experienced staff and volunteers go out on foot to speak individually with the women, especially the younger ones who are sometimes more reluctant to open up on the van in front of others
Van outreach Monday – Thursday, 8.00pm – 11.30pm, Friday, 8.00pm – 1am. Foot outreach happens once a week at various times.
