Street Angels was launched in Halifax in November 2005 and since then the project has started in over 100 towns and cities across the UK and overseas. They have also branched out into work at festivals, inside clubs and pubs, around communities, chaplaincy and more.

Locally we are launching ACT Street Angels.

The aims and objectives of Street Angels are:

• To provide a safe place for people who may be vulnerable to come to, get a drink, call a taxi and/or anything else they may need help with.

• We will provide support around the town centre by going out into the town in teams and giving support to people in need, making the town a safer place to be.

Nothing we do can be done without the support of highly dedicated volunteers, and we are currently seeking people who would like to be involved with the work of Street Angels in Accrington.
