Who are we...
Feet on the Street is a ‘churches together’ initiative aiming to provide extra support and care for people at night in Falmouth, Cornwall. We are a charitable trust comprising of local volunteers working in association with ROC Angels. Feet on the Street has been endorsed by the local council and police and we work in close association with them.
What we do...
At night people can get into various kinds of difficulties; under the influence of drugs or alcohol, disorientated by mental illness, lost in unfamiliar surroundings, or struggling with loneliness. We offer a welcome face, a non-judgmental listening ear and signposting to other support services where appropriate. We can also offer small items of practical help and we carry a basic first aid kit to assist and support people until they are deemed safe. We aim to provide hope, compassion and a calming presence to vulnerable people in need.
Why volunteer...
As Christians who really care about our community Feet on the Street volunteers are committed to the service of others in the name of Jesus. We are led to serve in a practical way and challenged to share Jesus’ love outside the four walls of our churches, we believe that we have a responsibility to serve people who need help and give our time for free, we are passionate about everyone feeling safe whether you are visiting, a student or a resident in our community.
