Jenny and her little dog Lulu*

When people are sleeping rough, complexities such as mental health conditions, can create barriers to securing long-term accommodation.

So when experienced Community Partners like Protea Place Women’s Support Centre are able to offer immediate safe and secure accommodation via The Good Night Initiative, it not only provides a suitable environment for engagement to occur but also gives time for the support service to build trust with the client.

When this happened for Jenny and her little dog Lulu*, extraordinary outcomes occurred.

Funded by Beddown’s The Good Night Initiative – we share our immense gratitude to Beddown supporters for making this happen!

Let’s help everyone get a good night’s sleep.
