Wednesday Club

A safe place for Robes guests to meet, eat and find advice.

The Wednesday Club is open to anyone who has stayed in a Robes Project night shelter.

We are based in Elephant & Castle between 10:30 am and 2:30 pm. We come together to cook and share a meal and to enjoy each other’s company in a relaxed atmosphere.

We have computers to check social media, look for jobs or play music. We have a shower and a healthy supply of body scrubs and shampoos.  We love playing table tennis, watching films or simply enjoying a good conversation.

To all members of the Robes family:

  • Come if you want to sit for a while in a place that is warm and free from intrusion.
  • Come if you want good, hot food and people to share it with.
  • Come if you want to practice your English.
  • Come if you want to cook, in a professional kitchen with volunteers to help.
  • Come if you think you can beat me at table tennis.
  • Come if you want to find a place to stay, or work or learn.
  • Or, if none of the above, just come anyway and see what else there is.

We also have volunteering opportunities at our Wednesday Lunch Club. Please contact project.officer@robes.org.uk for more details.

“I am 19 years old, and last year I helped Robes with the Wednesday Club. It’s a place where all guests of Robes can go for a few hours of distraction in the middle of the day.”
