Our Story
DEDICATION AND SERVICE
Beverley Street Angels was launched in July 2012 as a response of the churches to the needs identified in the town centre of Beverley.
Who Are We?
We are volunteers that give our time on Saturday nights until the early hours of Sunday morning and on special events. We are on the streets in all weathers supporting and caring for those who have become vulnerable at night. Not all Beverley Street Angels are Christians or belong to a church, but all volunteers respect Christian values.
What We do
Beverley Street Angels walk around Beverley town centre in hi-vis jackets ready to care for the vulnerable. We pick up empty bottles, discarded glasses and tin cans that could be used in a negative way later in the night. We clear up broken glass which could become embedded in bare feet. We listen and talk to all who want to spend time with us. We also provide information and assistance to those who need it, including giving out water, flip flops and dispensing first aid where necessary.
Why We do it
Actions speak louder than words and all Beverley Street Angels agree with the ehtos of the Christian faith. We believe that God wants us to live in a safe community and this work supports that outcome.
