With the incoming storm, officials have decided to extend the hours of service at the One Roof Community Centre.
The centre will be open from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. beginning on Thursday, until Saturday due to cold temperatures and a winter storm in the forecast for the Peterborough area.
One Roof Community Centre is located at 99 Brock Street. A meal is provided between 1 p.m. and 2 p.m.
Emergency shelters are open and available to people experiencing homelessness who require emergency overnight shelter. If shelter capacity is full, temporary alternative accommodations for overnight stays may be made available. Please contact the shelters first for space:
