The winter was quite mild this year and as a result the shelter was open only seventeen nights. Twenty guests in total spent at least one night with us, eight of whom were new. In total we had 43 bed nights, averaging 6.8 per night. The average is slightly higher than last year (6.2 last year), primarily due to the fact that our partner shelter, Richmond House, did not receive the same funding as last year, so they sent more guests our way.
