We as a Charity

CCP was originally founded in 1989 by a local businessman in response to the growing number of homeless young people in Cheltenham. Recognising that people as young as 16 were sleeping rough around the town after having been thrown out of their family home he purchased a building and opened a 10-bed hostel.

We have grown a lot since then and now aim to transform the lives of children young people families and vulnerable adults by preventing homelessness strengthening families and promoting independence. With a head office in Cheltenham we currently employ over 250 staff backed up by a team of over 150 volunteers currently delivering services and projects in Gloucestershire Worcestershire Herefordshire South Gloucestershire Bristol Wiltshire and Dorset.
