About CATH

Chester Aid to the Homeless (CATH) was founded by a team of volunteers in 1972 to provide help and support to Chester’s homeless community. The charity has developed over four decades to become a leading homeless charity in the city of Chester providing a wide range of services.

CATH remains the key Chester City Centre charity for homeless people, offering support, encouragement and a safety net to those in crisis. The Harold Tomlins Centre is open to all in need of help and support.

  • CATH operates the only homeless day centre in the County of Cheshire

  • CATH has 24 supported beds that operate under high demand and have a continual waiting list
  • CATH picks up those clients that have greatest difficulty accessing statutory services
