Graham<\/a> has delivered a refurbishment accommodation centre that has enabled London City Mission<\/a> (LCM) to provide much-needed housing and support to rough sleepers in Waterloo, London<\/h2>\n

The new short-term accommodation centre, which is located at the charity\u2019s The Corner House premises, above Webber Street Day Centre, was completed at no cost by Graham and its associated subcontractors.<\/p>\n

A Graham team project<\/a> managed the new centre from start to finish, appointing and engaging with a number of subcontractors to deliver the refurbishment.<\/p>\n

The works comprised surveying and upgrading of plumbing and ventilation systems, as well as the decorating throughout, and installation of a new commercial kitchen, flooring and windows. Graham also refurbished the sleeping areas.<\/p>\n

The Corner House will provide accommodation for four men at a time for a period of six months without the need to access public funds following a referral from the London City Mission\u2019s day centre on Webber Street.<\/p>\n

There is a staff team of four working at the project, with 29 volunteers from local churches on a rota, available to help alongside the staff.<\/p>\n

The project will be open every night of the year from 7.30pm to 7.30am with dinner being provided.\u00a0Each resident will have a designated support worker.<\/p>\n

Rob Joyce, Graham regional director of development, said: \u201cOur ethos at Graham is to deliver lasting impact within the communities where we operate and to make a difference by building a better future for everyone.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re deeply proud to have worked on this project for London City Mission, which carries out important services for the homeless community and with such compassion.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re equally thankful to our team of subcontractors who shared our determination to deliver this important centre for London\u2019s homeless community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jo Sayer, field director for South London for LCM, said: \u201cWe are delighted by the work that Graham and associated subcontractors carried out on The Corner House to make it a safe, comfortable and fit for purpose accommodation centre.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are extremely grateful for the work that was delivered at no cost to London City Mission and for the ethos of Graham in wanting to make a difference in communities. It has been a pleasure working with all at Graham throughout this process.\u201d<\/p>\n
