Who We Are

A life without limits for the people we support

St. Anne’s Community Services (St Anne’s) is a charity that is committed to enabling people to live their best life. We believe that the people we support should live a life without limits.

Founded as a daytime shelter for homeless men in Leeds in 1971, we have expanded over the years to become the charity we see today. Our very  first service was established to support some of society’s most vulnerable people, and we have maintained this ethos, with the people we support at the centre of everything we do.

We are proud to support over 1,600 adults across the North of England, and as a ‘not for profit’ organisation, we are proud to reinvest every pound we earn back into the charity and the services we provide.

We deliver a high standard of quality care which is reflected in our services Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspections, with other services with awards/ accreditations. Of our 100 properties providing housing support to nearly 600 tenants, 90% are already EPC compliant.  We are a leading Positive Behaviour Support training provider which is RRN Certified (Restraint Reduction Network) accredited.

We are committed to supporting people to live their best life, as we believe that the people we support should have “a live a life without limits”.

Before any services were created, homeless people were interviewed and they identified the need for a day centre. St Anne’s Centre was opened in December 1971.
