About Us
We are a Christian charity in Walsall serving our local community by helping those who find themselves in hardship, need and distress.
From our community hub in Aldridge, we work alongside other charities and community partners to offer a range of activities and support services to everyone in our community, regardless of faith, and to bring people together. During 2025 we are continuing to increase our support and services, growing our charity to enable us to meet diverse needs, help more people and reduce the impact of poverty on people's lives.

Our Community Event in Aldridge
Aldridge Community Event -
A Great success
On Saturday 10th May between 11am-4pm we brought the community together providing a day for everyone to come and join in the fun and meet the different organisations in the community. We had 35 organisations and charities, food stalls, craft stalls, activities, entertainment and information.
This was an opportunity to engage with people and we provided an opportunity for them to have their say on what they think their community needs.
You can also have your say and complete our short survey by scanning the QR code below or clicking on the link or by calling into our community hub for a paper copy. This will help us develop new services and support which meets the needs of local people.
If you complete the survey and leave your name and contact details you will be entered into our draw to win a £20 high street voucher.
