At The Swiss Church in London, we offer our guests affected by homelessness and poverty a beautiful and calm place to enjoy a weekly breakfast and a selection of essential toiletries, every Tuesday. Once a month, we also offer a cooked breakfast and free haircuts by Jake from Ena Salon.

Homelessness in London is on the rise and we welcome more guests every week. The Swiss Church has been reaching out to the homeless community in London for years through diverse activities, offering a safe place for homeless people to get a haircut, food, meet other people, or just relax in a calm space.

A team of motivated volunteers prepares a wonderful breakfast buffet every Tuesday, where homeless people can come in for a meal, meet new people, or just find a place of calm to relax and read the paper. Every month, a cooked breakfast is offered, and Jake Fox, stylist at Ena Hair Salon (and also responsible for the vicar’s haircut), comes in to give homeless people a free haircut.
