Hello

My name is Andrew.

On Monday 26th October 2026, I will be setting off on a pilgrimage to St Davids Cathedral, Pembrokeshire, a place of Hope & Faith for hundreds of years.

I will be walking from my home in Pontarddulais, Swansea to St Davids Cathedral, a journey of 67 miles over 5 days. I am fortunate to have the means for safe, warm and dry lodgings on my journey.

But not everyone in life is so fortunate.

Homelessness is a complex issue that affects millions across the world - including our own City of Swansea - an issue which requires attention and compassionate action.

So through my walk, I am trying to raise both awareness of homelessness and money that can be put to compassionate use.

Matthew's House exists to provide Hospitality and Hope to anyone who is in need of support.

Matthew’s House is a warm and welcoming building in the heart of Swansea, particularly seeking to serve the homeless & the most vulnerable. We offer hospitality and hope to everyone, regardless of their background, beliefs or circumstances. To achieve this, we offer a quality pay-as-you-feel cafe, and meet other essential needs. All monies donated via our Just Giving page go ONLY towards the work of Matthew’s House and NOT the other activities of The Hill Church.
