Cyrenians Cymru Charity Website - Welcome
Supported by the Welsh European Funding Office
Who we are
Since 1973, Cyrenians Cymru has endeavoured to help some of the most vulnerable people in society. These include people who have suffered homelessness, those who have led unsettled lives, and those who have accommodation, but suffer extreme isolation and disengagement from mainstream society.
Our Aims
We have come a long way since our humble beginnings and now offer services that encompass housing, health, training, employment, recycling and community regeneration.
Projects
You can access information about our individual projects from the links on the left. We have sites and schemes all across Swansea from the mumbles to the Hafod and will be opening new projects even further afield in the future
