Here to Help People

Anyone can find themselves facing grief and despair

We don't judge or condemn, we just help.

Family breakdown, unemployment, poverty, homelessness, and drug and alcohol dependency are just some of the reasons why people can lose everything they value, including their dignity. 

The Salvation Army has a long history of working with people

Who are vulnerable and marginalised across the world and offer very practical help, unconditional assistance and support regardless of race, religion, gender or sexual choices, respecting the identity and choices of all those referred to them.

In the UK and Republic of Ireland 
 
There are more than 800 Salvation Army social service centres and churches (corps).  We run 120 drop-in centres offering support and help for people in need and serve 3,000,000 meals every year at community and residential centres. Every working day, we reunite 10 people with their families through our Family Tracing Service.

 

Our respect for diversity

The Salvation Army is motivated by our Christian faith as part of the universal Christian church; as such we care for all people without discrimination. All of our services are open to everyone and we ask only what is your need, not what is your faith or background.

We completely respect the diversity of our clients and the people we support and treat them each as unique individuals. As well as having a right to be dealt with professionally, people can expect from us encouragement and a respect for their individual beliefs, ambitions and preferences.
