Did you know that WA has approximately 9000 homeless people with more than 1000 of those sleeping rough.

What is a rough sleeper? First and foremost a rough sleeper is a person, and for a multitude of reasons, is forced to sleep on the street, in parks, disused buildings or other places NOT designed for habitation.

There is plenty of ‘Policy and strategic planning’ taking place to address this complex issue, but in the meantime, people are still on the street.

So what about tonight? 

How can we take ACTION and help NOW?

Firstly, we need to stop pushing this issue in the TOO HARD BASKET and do something that can actually help our most marginalised community members stay safe and healthy until they can find their pathway out of homelessness.

Secondly, our community must come together, and we’d like to begin with fundraising for the first Perth sleepbus.

It’s temporary, effective, mobile, safe and can give rough sleepers some relief from their circumstances until they can get back on their feet.

When a group of compassionate and passionate individuals work together, real action can take place to help those that need us most.

Get onboard; sleepbus Perth.

WHAT IS SLEEPBUS?

sleepbus® provides a safe, temporary overnight accommodation service, getting people off the street by offering an immediate, first stop, cost-effective solution for our society’s most vulnerable; catching them early until they can get back on their feet.

WHAT'S IN A SLEEPBUS?

Each sleepbus® has up to 20 secure, climate controlled, individual sleep pods in twin cabins, each with a lockable door and toilet; everyone is looked after with overnight security and CCTV surveillance; we also have under bus storage for belongings, a cosy place for companion animals and even a twin cabin for our overnight volunteers. 

A big thank you to our Supporters

The real heroes who are kindly helping us achieve our goal

We need one of these here in Perth. We are all only one door away from homelessness.

I deal with homeless people on a daily basis and it is heartbreaking...they need as much help as we can give.

I hope together as a society we can come together as to provide a unique opportunity for our local homeless community after so many of our tax dollars have spent studying and analysing them with arguably little return on investment. I would like to thank Jon, whose tireless efforts have humbled me greatly.

Please get behind this- a good nights sleep can change so many things! This is achievable, we have around 1000 rough sleepers every night, this gives them a safe, secure temporary place to sleep.
