One good topic could be the different people who come to the night centre seeking shelter. For example, you could write about a young runaway who finds a sense of community at the night centre. Another topic could be the volunteers at the night centre and their experiences, like how they deal with difficult situations or how they form bonds with the people they help. Or you could focus on the night centre itself as a place full of stories, with its own history and the changes it has seen over the years.
