Coffee4Craig was founded in 2013 by Risha and Hendrix Lancaster in response to the tragic death of Risha's brother, Craig.

The comprehensive services include nutritious food, respite, vital support, referrals, showers, and a safe, welcoming space where individuals can access the care and support they need.

We open our doors when the daytime services close, this creates an opportunity for those who sleep in the day time, when it is safer, those who are new to the streets or just in need of an evening meal. Weekends and evenings have different challenges for people on the streets and we are there to support our guests with dignity, humanity and give some respite. 

Join us as we make a tangible difference in the lives of those experiencing street homelessness, offering hope and a pathway to a better future.
