The charity reaches around 1,200 individuals (annually) with the most deep-rooted needs; people whose interlinking mental and physical health, and trauma and substance use challenges mean they often struggle to access mainstream support.

In 2025/26, we supported 1,270 people through 36,313 tailored interventions.
