02 Activities

What the charity does

We are fully trained volunteers from local churches in Bishops Stortford and Sawbridgeworth who care about our community. We visit the town centre , usually on Friday or Saturday nights, in teams of men and women, aiming to care for, listen to, and help people who are out and about in our town, especially those who are vulnerable or at risk of harm.
