The services we provide to the community

Our professional and trustworthy team put their expertise to use across a huge variety of services, bringing advice, practical support and development opportunities.

Advocacy

We reach out to those who are in crisis and at risk of immediate homelessness. We believe that it is a Biblical principle and a humane response to feed the hungry, clothe the naked and welcome the stranger. We do this principally through our Outreach Services on the streets of Bedford, and our Helpline and Advice Service for refugees, people seeking asylum and vulnerable migrants.

Helpline

A helpline offering advice and support to refugees and vulnerable migrants (and the professionals supporting them)

Refugee & Migrant Advice Service

An alternative to detention pilot developed in partnership with the Home Office and UNHCR providing free legal advice for vulnerable irregular migrants.

Outreach

The Outreach team brings hope to some of the most marginalised and forgotten clients in our community.

Homes

Housing is an issue of social justice and equality. The Independent Commission on Housing, Church and Community lays out a positive vision for housing, centred on five core values, which are rooted in the Christian story but resonate with us all: good housing should be sustainable, safe, stable, sociable and satisfying. We aim to provide accommodation that fulfills these five criteria for individuals and families from the UK as well as refugees and asylum seekers. Across our homes, we provide accommodation for people in a variety of different situations, tailored to help them thrive.

Pathways Community

Offering a place for people to find belonging, gain self-confidence and rediscover their value through a wide variety of courses and experiences

ESOL

Our English Language Programme to help learners integrate into the local community

I want to support the Bedford Winter Night Shelter

Every penny raised will go directly to opening our doors for those without a place to go and providing; an evening meal, a warm place to sleep and breakfast in the morning.

We are committed to running Bedford Winter Night Shelter for 90 days. Would you consider partnering with us for those 90 days?
