Partner organisations
Ben’s Centre works closely with local charities, health and support services to provide a complete, holistic network for our clients.
Our Projects
Ben’s Centre began as a Day Centre for individuals with alcohol misuse issues, however over the years we have evolved from this. The Day Centre is the heart of our project, a welcoming environment where victims of misuse can get the support and stability they need to address their issues. We also run an outreach service to identify individuals needing support on the streets of Sheffield.
“A lifeline and a place of sanctuary for the sufferers of substance misuse and street culture”
Get Involved
There are many ways to get involved with Ben’s Centre, and we are always open to hearing new ways if you feel you have something else to offer.
Skill swap
Although the staff team and volunteers achieve amazing outcomes with very little income, even this super human effort could benefit from the support of local professionals.
Volunteer opportunities
If you feel you have something to offer Ben's Centre or are looking to gain valuable experience to work in this area of social care, we offer volunteer opportunities in our Day Centre.
Make a Donation
We couldn't help clients the way we do without your support. Any donations we do receive are directly used to help those who need us. We also accept donations of clothing and other items.
