We run a drop in service where we serve lunch and dinner every week day. We run college classes in basic IT, employability and wellbeing We run an outreach team who connect with people who are street homeless or who are begging. We work with an ever increasing number of International guests, many of whom are seeking asylum, we offer one to one support and weekly ESOL classes.
