About Us
1993
Where we’ve come from
The Purfleet Trust was set up as a charity in 1993 to provide help for single homeless people in King’s Lynn and West Norfolk. We saw first-hand the struggles that homeless people faced, from finding a safe place to sleep to accessing healthcare and support services. We expanded year on year, and in our first 10, we helped 2500 people find homes and live independently.
Growth
We’ve grown from strength to strength
Over the years, our services have evolved and expanded to meet the changing needs of our clients. We have developed strong partnerships with local authorities, volunteers and local businesses to ensure that we can provide a holistic and comprehensive approach to homelessness.
Thriving!
We are constantly striving achieve more
Our journey has not always been easy. We have faced challenges and setbacks, but we have also celebrated successes and milestones. We have been privileged to work with some amazing people who have shown incredible resilience, strength, and determination in the face of adversity.
