SERVING YORK by GIVING

Volunteering is one of the primary ways we encourage the Belfrey congregations to engage with small one-off social transformation projects as well as praying for Jesus’ love to be spread throughout York. We have a different focus each quarter on four main areas so everyone can join in volunteering outside the church in our community.

We also use this as a way to signpost to longer term volunteering with our Social Transformation projects and other York charities.

In 2025, our focus each season will be as follows:

In previous years, we’ve focussed on : homelessness, asylum seekers, families, foodbank, hampers to CAP clients, and other families in need through Besom.
