St Petrocs was established 35 years ago to offer support to those who have nowhere else to go and acts as the last line of defence against someone having to experience rough sleeping. St Petrocs is an independent, charitable organisation that provides people in need with somewhere and someone to turn to.
From the front-line professionals delivering critical engagement, resettlement, counselling, and accommodation services, to the dedicated support staff working in administration, finance, fundraising and communications, St Petrocs are committed to building an inclusive environment where people of all backgrounds are treated fairly and feel a genuine sense of belonging.
