Community Service
The Harbour
The Harbour was set up as a safe place for those to come who for a variety of reasons need support, friendship, encouragement & the opportunity to have some fun. It has been established in Witney since 2013, however in recent months the numbers of those attending has dropped & we are aware of other such groups which have started in the area. As such following an evening meal out together, we have agreed to suspend the meetings over the summer period & review recommencing in the Autumn
Street Cafe, Food Boxes & Parcels
This is a CTIW initiative that runs most Saturday's from 11pm till 3am in Market Square, Witney. We have had the opportunity to serve hot drinks & soups to a variety of people whilst engaging them in conversation. The street cafe ensures, as much as possible, that young people get home safely & provides the opportunity to network with those who are homeless, connecting them to others who can best assist them.
We have for a number of years supplied food boxes to those in need who live locally. In addition we have the privilege of providing small gifts throughout the year at significant times i.e. Christmas, Easter. These gifts are distributed by a local charity who work full time in supporting the homeless, newly homed & those in need.
