Help Us Bring Hope

This may be the most incredible present you give this Christmas.

For a donation of just £5, you can help The Wellspring provide Christmas Dinner and a gift to homeless and vulnerable people this year.

2022 has been one of the busiest years in recent memory for us.

The cost of living crisis has seen the number of people that we welcome through our doors increase steadily throughout the year.

The challenges these people face range from street sleeping, poverty, risk of homelessness, social exclusion, physical & mental health issues, through to domestic abuse, substance misuse, emotional coercion, debt and illiteracy.

The Wellspring will always be here.

We know that times are hard.

We know that these past few years have affected every single one of us.

We know that asking for donations in this climate is a difficult subject to raise.

However, we will never stop providing hope for the people we see at The Wellspring.

And we need help to bring hope.
