SHREWSBURY STREET PASTORS
Our mission is to train volunteers drawn from Christian churches to provide a listening ear and practical help to the socially marginalised and the needy. We typically patrol the streets of Shrewsbury on Friday and Saturday nights and work in partnership with the police, local councils and a range of voluntary and statutory organisations in order to reach and help all those in need.
