PARTNERS

We are happy to work with a varied range of partner organisations across Derby.

Derby City Mission

We are a Christian charity with nearly 30 years of experience. We started supporting the homeless, poor and needy in 1989, founded initially as a debt advice service and were the first food bank nationwide.

From delivering the good news of Jesus to children in schools to providing a meeting place for historic street drinkers or warm food and a safe place to sleep for the homeless, we aim to meet people wherever they are on their journey in life.
