Ben's Centre is a charity that aims to provide a safe space and an open hand to those who suffer substance misuse and its associated barriers.
- It is a ‘damp centre’ meaning clients are allowed to access the centre on Wilkinson Street while under the influence, as long as no substances are brought onto the premises.
- Outreach, Monday to Friday, offering advice, food and drink, clean clothes and the opportunity for a friendly chat.
- Ben’s Bazaar Shop: raise funding for the project, provide information and signposting, provide a place for client work experience
We provide hot meals, showers, phone and internet access, a hub for other professionals to meet clients, laundry and activities
