Thanks to our generous supporters, the refurbishment of our [Wesley Edward Eagar Centre](https://www.wesleymission.org.au/get-support/housing-and-homelessness/edward-eagar-centre/) crisis accommodation is now complete. The service re-opened just as a COVID-19 outbreak spread across Sydney. Within days, the 40 rooms were filled with men and women experiencing homelessness.

 

The centre features lockable private rooms, each with an ensuite and storage, communicating a sense of dignity and worth. A dedicated space for women provides an area where they can feel safe, as many have survived family and/or sexual violence. People can also access a range of support on-site provided by Wesley Mission and our partners, helping them break the cycle of homelessness.

> The bright, modern restoration has created a warm and welcoming atmosphere. One gentleman cried with gratitude because, as he said, “I never thought I would have the chance to sleep in a place so nice again.”
> 
> Says Rob Seaton, Operations Manager of our homeless services, “If people can feel their shoulders relax and their eyes raised and their spirits lifted, then we are off to a good start.”

**Thank you for supporting our Wesley Edward Eagar Centre Appeal, giving hope and transforming lives.**
