Trinity Winchester receives £10,000 from Lane Clark & Peacock

We are extremely grateful to receive £10,000 from the LCP Foundation to support our emergency work during the Coronavirus Health Crisis. Lane Clark & Peacock are fantastic supporters of Trinity! In addition to funding us through the LCP Foundation, LCP’s staff volunteer in our kitchen, donate IT equipment, raise money individually which is matched by the company, help to maintain our day centre and garden and mentor clients in our job clubs to get back into employment. We can’t wait to welcome the team back, after lockdown ends, and continue our great work together. Thank You.

Trinity’s Heroes come together to support the homeless

Trinity Winchester has been blown away by the support received during the Coronavirus Health Crisis and sends thanks to the community for donations and support during this difficult time.

The charity launched an Emergency Coronavirus Appeal three weeks ago which has reached over £25,000 raised in donations, including £10,000 from Simply Health, £1,500 from Rotary Winchester and support from local churches and many people in the community.

Aside from financial donations, the charity has received an overwhelming amount of in-kind support from its Trinity Heroes, including supply of hundreds of microwaveable meals from COOK Winchester, weekly hot lunches from Winchester College, weekly fresh groceries from Cobbs farm shop, donation collections from Rotary Winchester, and The University of Winchester, Brewin Dolphin Ltd and many more.

Sue McKenna, CEO at Trinity Winchester said: We would like to personally thank everyone who has responded to our appeal for their overwhelming generosity. I would also like to applaud our Trinity team who are working tirelessly to serve those in the community who need us the most. The Trinity vision statement “working together for better lives in our community” has never seemed truer, thank you from the bottom of our hearts to all our supporters.

Ian, who was found rough sleeping following a relationship breakdown during this unprecedented time,
says “I just don’t know what would have happened to me if I had to sleep out another night, I was so scared, I’m not used to doing this. I was helped off the streets and now have a room, some warm food, good advice, and someone to talk to, thank you”.

Trinity is a charity providing support to homeless and vulnerable people in Winchester and the surrounding area. The charity operates from a day centre in central Winchester, offering practical and emotional support to help people out of homelessness and ready to move on to independent living and into employment.

Working in with partnership with Winchester City Council and other Coronavirus taskforce partners, Trinity is supporting all rough sleepers who have been given access to emergency accommodation. Homeless practitioners are visiting the accommodation four times a day, providing clothing and hygiene products to all residents, offering vital human contact and counselling by phone, alongside delivering over 100+ meals to those in emergency accommodation and other housing providers.
