Canaan Trust
About Us
Since 1995, the Canaan Trust has supported people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness across our local communities. Over the years, the number of women and families seeking help has grown significantly. In response, the Trust has expanded its services and now operates Aspire House — a dedicated, female‑only project located next door to Jordan House, our long‑established project for men
The Trust operates 24-7, 365 days a year from its base on Main Street, Long Eaton. We are a Christian charity providing care and support to anyone in need, regardless of gender, age, sexuality, ethnicity, creed, individual or family. The Trust seeks to reach out to all who are isolated and in need providing access to help and support – with issues relating to homelessness, insecure accommodation, benefits, debts, or food poverty.
The Canaan Trust homeless charity cares for each unique individual or family in a holistic, person-centred way. The goal is to enable each individual or family to address the issues that caused their homelessness or trapped them in being homeless, supporting them to ‘Rebuild their Lives’ so they can positively move forward to achieve independent living back in the Community.
