Porchlight's Warming Centre WILL BE OPENING SOON
If you're outside at night in Cambridge, and need a place to warm up, Porchlight's Warming Centre is available for you.
The Warming Centre is located inside at Wesley United Church, 6 Cambridge St., Cambridge and is open from 8pm to 8am seven nights a week.
Warming Centre
The number of people currently experiencing homelessness in Waterloo Region is unprecedented. Like most communities across Canada, we are in a housing crisis.
In response to urgent needs and after an extensive search for space, the Region and Porchlight will be opening an overnight warming centre at Wesley United Church, located at 6 Cambridge Street, Cambridge. The location will begin operating this month to support individuals who need safety and protection from harsh and cold winter weather.
Porchlight provides a safe space where counselling and addictions services support the emotional well-being of people in Cambridge and North Dumfries.
