Founded on Christian principles, Routes to Roots seeks to help all homeless and vulnerably housed people in Poole regardless of their faith.
Since 2000 Routes to Roots has supported rough sleepers, vulnerably housed (sofa surfers or in B&Bs) and newly housed (formerly homeless) adults in Poole.
At five drop-ins we provide basic necessities, such as showers, hot food, clothing and sleeping bags, and offer outreach access to the Poole addictions team, mental health workers, Poole rough sleeper outreach team and housing advisers.
We also offer supported housing for three rough sleepers, working with the local authorities to move them on into independent accommodation.

A huge thank you to 1st Lytchett Minster Scouts for the donation of sleeping bags, liners, roll mats and blankets and a special mention to Emilie Hannam for picking them all up for us! 😊
They were taken into the Genesis Centre on Monday morning and most of them have been given out to the homeless already!
These donations are truly appreciated - thank you! 🥰
