Help us to help our community's most vulnerable at Fletcher Street Cottage with support and services for the homeless.
Help us provide a healthy breakfast and a hot shower for those who have none. Support our homeless hub and make a difference in someone's life today.
Your support will help us give the most vulnerable members of our community a safe place to connect, a nourishing meal, and access to critical services they need to get back on their feet. Give the gift of hope and help us provide a lifeline for those without a place to call home.
You can help us by donating goods, services or support with fundraising. If you'd like to help out in a big way or make a substantial contribution, please get in touch with our General Manager Louise O'Connell on gm@byroncentre.com.au or 0477 666 819.
We'd love to chat in person, offer you a tour of our facilities and discuss what an incredible difference your contribution will make. Become a sponsor or partner and be part of the solution to end homelessness in our community.
Responding to the housing crisis, Byron Community Centre and Creative Capital joined forces in 2021 to reopen Fletcher Street Cottage in as a hub for Byron's most vulnerable.
Previously run as a drop-in centre for people experiencing homelessness, the cottage had been closed since 2017 due to a lack of funding, and was reopened in April 2022 to provide homeless services and support.
We’d like to wholeheartedly thank our many sponsors, partners and donors, who generously give time, expertise, materials, services and funds in support of Fletcher Street Cottage and Byron's homeless community.
Without this enterprising group of businesses and individuals, the renovation and reopening of the cottage, and now the ongoing service operation with its increasing demand, would not be possible.
We look forward to working with you to make a positive impact in our community.
Thank you to our sponsors, partners and donors from the Byron Shire and beyond. We simply couldn’t do it without you.
