Cambridge Cyrenians
Cambridge Cyrenians is a local charity working to prevent and relieve homelessness in Cambridge. For over 55 years, we have provided safe, stable homes and specialist support (through our Wellbeing and Independence Services) to people who are homeless or at risk of losing their home.
We believe that everyone deserves a place where they feel safe, respected and supported. That’s why we focus on providing real homes - not hostels - alongside practical and emotional support that helps people rebuild their lives.

- Community Allotment: Open every Tuesday and Thursday across six plots in central Cambridge, giving people a structured space to grow food, build routine and connect with others.
- Older Homeless Service: Tailored support for people aged 45 and over, helping them move into suitable accommodation or remain safely and stably housed.
- Meaningful Activities: Helping people access education, training and volunteering opportunities on their journey towards employment and independence
