2022 has been a challenging year for those experiencing or at risk of homelessness. In Cambridge, we are fortunate to have an amazing network of groups and individuals willing to go the extra mile.
Without your support, It Takes A City would not have been able to continue providing dignity and comfort at Crossways, our winter emergency accommodation project.
Through our Action Groups you have come together to seek solutions that are sustainable and focused on the individual in need.
You have helped us communicate with the wider community through sharing our social media posts and inviting our team to speak at events both online and in person.
As a small charity, we would not have been able to achieve any of the above without your support, for which we are immensely grateful.
Lis Silver, ITAC Interim CEO, offered her personal thanks.
“The recent period of cold weather has made us all aware how tough living on the streets must be at this time of year. It has been amazing to see the help It Takes A City have received from the local community. Individuals, both town and gown, have provided support to our guests at Crossways.
Working in partnership with CCHP, we have a team of over 100 volunteers who cook and serve every evening meal and give time to help with housekeeping and to provide companionship to residents”.
