RAISE THE ROOF COMMUNITY PROJECT (HULL) 

Raise The Roof supports the homeless and those in need in the City of Hull. We provide hot nutritious food three days a week (a 'soup kitchen' that we term as Outreach) and support those clients in helping them to contact and navigate the support services for housing, benefits, drug/alcohol dependency, domestic abuse and health support.
