City Hearts
City Hearts exists to help young vulnerable men and women and has the capacity to house up to 35 people at any one time.

2012 Update
Welcome to a brand new season for City Hearts!
Sometimes there are times in our lives as people and as an organization that are truly memorable. It feels just like one of those times here at City Hearts. We are increasingly being given the opportunity and privilege to bring change into the lives of people that can truly be considered vulnerable.
We now have the privilege of running a 21 bed women's Recovery House, an 8 bed women's Safe House and we are now also running a home for men rescued from exploitation. We really genuinely desire to see these vulnerable men and women not only rescued as the case may be, but also given the opportunity to pick their lives up again and pursue their dreams.
Our heart is not just to create houses but homes. We so value all those that support us and would love you to consider our ‘Make a House a Home’ Amazon wishlist. This is our way of making our houses welcoming and a place these men and women enjoy staying in.
Once again it is an honour to look after and love people back to life. When musing upon the enormity of what we do, I always think let’s touch one life at a time.
Jenny Gilpin
Founder and Executive Director
