Room for a Room: Be part of a lasting legacy
When you donate to our Room for a Room project you will be part of a lasting legacy. Each room in our B&B will directly support companions living in our community and help them make positive changes towards their future.
We have already raised £1.4 million to get the roof of the B&B repaired and to restore the original windows however we are now fundraising for £500,000 to restore the 23 rooms and 4 bathrooms to their former glory and we need your support to ensure we can protect and maintain the history of the listed building.
Make a Difference
£10 – Will help us restore original 1876 floorboards
£30 – Will support us to strip and repair walls in one room
£50 – Will help us restore the original 1876 fireplaces
£100 – Will support our companions with hospitality and catering training
The Room for a Room Impact
We are continually growing our community to benefit our companions and provide them with more opportunities to develop and learn new skills. The B&B will offer valuable, tangible work experience and training to our companions and support them to re-build their self-esteem and self-worth after experiencing homelessness.
This project is only JUST beginning and we’re excited to be able to take you along with us; As we restore, design, decorate and before long invite our first guests to La Maison de l‘Abbe Pierre.
