In the charity's own words
We meet at the Basement, in Parr Street, Liverpool weekly to provide hot food, sandwiches, cakes, drinks, clothes and toiletries to those who are homeless or living in hostels in Liverpool. We also provide support, advice and counselling where needed. We direct them on to other volunteer services who might be able to help them, if necessary. We share a message of Christian hope with them.
