Severe Weather Emergency Provision
The Severe Weather Emergency Provision (SWEP) has been activated in the Hastings Borough Council area from Friday 13 March 2026 and will remain active until further notice.
The council has been working with Warming Up The Homeless to provide a place of overnight safety for rough sleepers during the severe weather.
The overnight centre is at Gizmo House, 23 Priory Street, Hastings, East Sussex TN34 1EA (opposite Domino’s Pizza). Telephone: 07367 060708 / 07731 998878.
The centre will provide dorm style beds with freshly laundered pillows and duvets, with space available for those who need a quieter room.
Warming Up The Homeless have confirmed that:
• People with pets are welcome
• Three hot meals a day will be provided at no cost
• People can access free shower facilities
• People can access free laundry facilities
• Last entry 10pm. People do not need to approach the council in order to access this SWEP provision.
If anyone has any queries regarding this provision outside of office hours, the out of hours team can be contacted on 01424 451999.
We are continuing to offer support to rough sleepers this winter including support to find a longer-term home. If you are concerned about someone who is rough sleeping, let us know at StreetLink.
