Built for the community, by the community

Welcome to Blue Wren House.

Upon referral our caseworkers will gather some information from you and if you decide to come into shelter, caseworkers will work with you to get you to the shelter safely.

All residents have their own lockable bedroom and shared bathroom, kitchen and living facilities.

In shelter, caseworkers will work closely with you towards finding longer term housing options that are best suited to you. This normally takes around 12 weeks.
