Could you be a Streetlight?

Durham StreetLights volunteers go out in the centre of Durham on Saturday nights (working alongside police, paramedics and door staff) to help and support people who are having difficulties.

This may involve helping them to find friends and get home, or in some cases they may require first aid or simply a friendly ear to talk to.

They are there simply to help regardless of how anyone got into the situation they're in, because they believe it's the sort of thing that Jesus would do, and because it demonstrates his love for them.

If you would like to find out more information or are interested in signing up, please speak to, or email, Micah Cox. Alternatively, you could visit the StreetLights website.

StreetLights

Durham StreetLights recently celebrated its fifth year of providing practical and emotional support to people in Durham city late at night.

The people they help varies vastly and can include reuniting friends, being a listening ear, and administering basic first aid. They're currently looking for new volunteers to help the import work they do as part of a triangle protecting the people of Durham.

The next volunteer training dates are as follows: Saturday 10th October, 10:00am - 2:00pm; Saturday 17th October, 10:00am – 3:00pm.

To volunteer, fill in an application form from www.durhamcp.org.uk or 0191-303-8623. If you have any questions, get in touch with volunteer@durhamstreetlights.org.uk or speak to Greg Marler or Howard Bray at church.
