Spring of Hope Women’s Shelter offers short term support and refuge for women in Bristol, who are homeless and vulnerable.

Spring of Hope is a non-commissioned referral service, providing shelter, short-term accommodation, and hope for women in their moment of crisis, when they have nowhere else to go.

The team of  female staff and volunteers advocate for women, walking alongside them to help them get to a place where they are able to engage with specialised agencies who can offer longer term support.

Available services

365 nights a year, we provide emergency night shelter for women. A warm, safe and compassionate place where women can start to heal from trauma and work with agencies to find longer term accommodation.

Haircuts

Haircuts for Homeless visit regularly to provide a female only salon experience, at no charge.

“There’s feelings of safety, belonging and being cared about.”
