We're grateful to have been a part of the recent panel discussion hosted by London Heritage Quarter, as we shared insights from our work to prevent and end rough sleeping💫 It was great to hear from other organisations including The Connection at St Martin-in-the-Fields, St Mungo's, Westminster City Council, and Turning Point working within this sector as we discussed the importance of early intervention and long-term, wraparound support for those experiencing street homelessness.

For our Harvest Festival this year at St Giles-in-the-Fields Church we are encouraging those who are able to make a financial contribution to The Passage Charity which is working to end homelessness and rough sleeping. You can make donations online at this link: https://lnkd.in/egKCXakb Please join me at 11am or 6.30pm on Sunday 6th October if you are able. In the morning I will be exploring how the scriptures encourage us to grow our 'felt sense' - inspired by #WorldMentalHealthDay on 10th October. In the evening I will draw on the life and writings of one of the ‘St Giles Blackbirds’ - Robert Wedderburn, a British-Jamaican radical and abolitionist, inspired by #BlackHistoryMonth St Giles-in-the-Fields, 60 St Giles High Street, London, WC2H 8LG
