The Day Centre's warm and relaxed atmosphere is an ideal meeting venue to chat. Staff are always willing to spend time lending a listening ear in times of personal crisis and can give advice on homelessness, housing issues, support with sustaining accomodation. A signposting service for drug and alcohol issues together with harm minimisation advice.

There is a timetable of educational and fun activities. There is also free online access so that people can write letters, email, compile C.V.s or just play computer games.

Any budding artists can participate in the Arts and Crafts sessions on Mondays with Caroline and Rachel from Artlandish who are at the moment supporting clients with a large mural of old Grimsby.
