Good Samaritans Wanted – NOW
You may have read in our Summer Newsletter that we are well on the way to being able to offer supported housing to some of Poole’s rough sleepers. This is thanks to the support of a national Christian social enterprise, Green Pastures, who are buying a maisonette for us, which will house three of Poole’s homeless community.
Revd. Pat Southgate, Routes to Roots Chairman, says: “For Routes to Roots this is, of course, pastures new and we go into it with our eyes open and well aware of the challenges ahead. Compared to the stone cold concrete of a town centre car park, where they are most likely to currently reside, this accommodation is a major step forward. We have been assured by Green Pastures that they intend that this property will be the first of many they are willing to obtain for us and we are grateful to them for their faith in us and commitment to the rough sleepers of Poole”.
Green Pastures asks us to demonstrate the support that the community has for this venture by just ten individuals or groups becoming Good Samaritans for Routes to Roots. This involves committing to a donation of just £4.50 per month to Green Pastures to enable them to continue their good work. Can you do this for us?
