What the charity does

We provide a place where the public can meet for spiritual guidance. Once a month we provide hot meals for the public. We also have a clothes drive where the public can pick up suitable items of clothing for an interview or a special occasion. Our religious and non-religious services are available to all members of the public. There are no exemptions or preferences or costs.
