Pilgrim Homes are longstanding Christian providers of high-quality care and support for older people. Their services include respite care for those needing a short period of rest or recovery, residential care for individuals who require daily assistance, and specialist nursing and dementia care delivered with compassion and dignity. They also offer comfortable retirement apartments designed for assisted living, enabling residents to maintain independence with support close at hand. In addition, Pilgrim Homes provide fully equipped houses for missionaries returning for home leave, giving them a peaceful and welcoming place to rest, reconnect, and prepare for their next season of ministry.
Street Pastors is about Christians rolling up their sleeves and getting involved in practical, compassionate responses to issues of crime, vulnerability, and community safety. Street Pastors walk the streets at night, offering a calming presence, a listening ear, and simple but meaningful help, whether that’s giving out lollipops, water, helping someone get home safely, supporting those who are distressed, or working alongside local services to keep the town a safe and welcoming place for everyone. Their aim is to bring care, reassurance, and hope wherever it’s needed.
