For more than 50 years, Petrus has supported people across Rochdale, Oldham, and Burnley who are at risk of homelessness, offering safety, dignity, and a place to belong.

At our Rochdale Hub, anyone in need can access free meals, hot drinks, showers, clean clothes, laundry facilities, and essential personal care items.

In a typical year, our Hub sees close to 24,000 visits. Support often includes:

• Rough sleeping support - around 185 instances of help for people sleeping on the streets
• Housing advice and referrals - more than 1,300 sessions helping people move towards safe, stable accommodation
• Meals and food support - over 14,800 meals, plus almost 1,500 food vouchers and more than 400 food parcels
• Essential care - more than 1,100 showers, over 1,000 toiletries, 600 uses of our washing machines, and more than 1,500 items of clothing

Beyond the Hub, we provide supported housing for over 200 residents, helping people build life skills, manage tenancies, and overcome the challenges that have shaped their lives.

To support wellbeing and connection, we run inclusive groups and nature‑based activities at our community allotment, PIER, where people can grow, learn, heal, and reconnect with others.

Together, we will end homelessness and create safe places where all people can flourish.
