Our Services

At Grace, we help people in lots of different ways. We always try to create a cosy and communal atmosphere where everyone is treated equally and respected. 

Morning Cafe 

Åboulevard 50    -    08.00-11.30    -    Monday to Friday

The morning cafe gives people the chance to start their day with some food and a hot drink. Our staff and volunteers are always on hand with a smile to help the guests with their various needs. We have beds for the guests to rest in at all shift and we have a room full of clothes for those who need that. 

Night Shelter   

Åboulevard 50    -    21.30-06.30    -    Everyday    

The coldest months of the year we give 16 people a warm, comfy place to sleep every night. We use a lottery system to ensure that everyone has a fair chance of staying with us. Having a place to sleep has a huge impact, especially during the cold winter months. 

We also collaborate with other shelters in the city, to help people as effectively as possible. 

Grace Hostel    

Since December 2020, Grace have had a hostel project, as a part of the work we do. The hostel  has been vital in overcoming the barriers facing the homeless, such as having a permanent address for CPR registration. Staff members are available to the guests 7 days a week, providing guidance and support as well as a reliable friendly face, helping them to navigate their way out of homelessness.

 With support from Augustinus fond and the Commune we have 8 spaced available. Each year we have between 35 and 45 people staying in the project and more than half make it all the way to fulltime job and permeant housing. Some also get stabilized enough to go back home.

Showers   

Sjællandsgade 12A    -    08.30-12.00    -    Friday

Thanks to our collaboration with Sjællandsgade Bad, every Friday we offer people the chance to take a warm shower and wash their clothes. Being able to get clean makes a huge difference for people living in the street, and is so important for the general health in the target group. We also provide laundry, hot drinks and breakfast.

Advice and Help

Our staff and volunteers are always there to provide advice and assistance. Anyone is welcome to come and talk about any problems they might have. We offer assistance with job searching, CV writing, accommodation advice, translation and navigating the Danish system. 

If we are unable to help, we refer people to other organizations such as The Homeless Unit, The Street Lawyer and Project Outside. 
 

Community Support

As well as the people who use our services, we support our local community in Nørrebro. People living in the area are welcome to collect food and other items that they need from us. We aim to build strong relationships with our neighbors and other organizations working in the area.
