We believe that no one should be alone on their journey when life is hard.

Faithworks work alongside people in crisis, practically building hope and resilience, through projects around food, finance, recovery, homelessness and lone parenting.

What we do

Finding solutions around food, debt, homelessness, addictive behaviours, and social isolation.

We are a local Christian charity that works alongside people through times of crisis practically building hope and resilience.  We walk alongside people on their journey until they feel ready to manage on their own.

We support Food Banks in Poole, Christchurch, Wimborne and Blandford.  We specialise in supporting those affected by homelessness, food poverty, debt, addiction and those who find themselves in lone parent families.
