With continued funding from Cambridge City Council (now in the form of a 3-year contract) and Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC), It Takes a City (ITAC) ran the 24/7 winter emergency accommodation project at Crossways for a third year. 

  • 48 individuals accommodated  

  • 4 individuals accommodated during SWEP periods  

  • 3 individuals who left were allowed to re-access and given a second opportunity  

  • 27 individuals secured moves or offers of moves to longer-term accommodation 

We wanted to share what can be achieved when the community comes together to support those in need and to give thanks to our amazing network of volunteers, partner agencies, students, schools and others who made this possible. 

Our short report contains all the details. 

Planning is already underway for the coming winter. Please contact info@itac.org.uk to find out how you can support our work with some of the city’s most vulnerable people.
