On the fifth Sunday of the month (quarterly), we have a drop-in and hot meal at Dorset Gardens Methodist Church from 2 pm to 4 pm. The meal is aimed at those who are homeless, vulnerably housed or those who feel excluded or on the periphery of society. We currently have an average of about 60 people coming each quarter.
As well as providing a good quality hot meal (cooked by a team of volunteer cooks on site) we give people a chance to relax – we provide hot drinks and people have a chance, to chat to read the papers or just to be quiet.
We have a great team of volunteers! Some prefer to stay in the kitchen and others help set out the hall, serve our guests and wash up. This is a joint project in partnership with Sleepsafe.
We always welcome new volunteers, so if you would like to find out more please contact the Church Office on 01273 605502.
