What We Do
HARC is a Sheffield-based charity providing a safe, warm and welcoming refuge for vulnerable people during the festive season. Every year, while much of the city celebrates at home, many in our community face cold, hunger and loneliness. We open our door to offer hot meals, warm clothing, companionship and dignity to anyone in need - no questions asked.
