Story
In Bradford, the needs of the poor and destitute are many. The Franciscan Friars of the Renewal offer a space in which physical, spiritual, and social needs can be met. Visitors are always greeted with a smile! Each Friar has a strong sense of what it means to give service with an underlying sense of dignity. The Friar's caring hospitality is essential for those seeking refuge and rest from the clamour of the city. Since the COVID pandemic, the number of those coming to the Friars has doubled and they now offer lunch to over 150 people daily.
The Franciscan Friars of the Renewal need help to raise funds for their St Patrick's Mission Bradford, they invite you to participate in or offer sponsorship of the stunningly sublime ONE Peak Challenge Walk which is taking place on Saturday 3rd July 2021 and the THREE Peaks Challenge on 7th August (the walks will be subject to all COVID government safety guidelines).
