Story
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit our Just Giving page.
We are raising money for the St Vincent De Paul Society (SVP) by walking 100km to Santiago de Compostella, via the Portuguese route in April 2026. SVP is a national charity with satellite branches across England and Wales tackling poverty in all its forms.
SVP supports the poor and vulnerable in local communities and spends precious time with people. Their work includes visiting the sick and lonely, providing free meals for the needy, providing medical care and running community centres. SVP aims to empower people to find employment and education and campaigns for social justice.
Locally we provide food, essentials and support, aiming to help those in need. We work closely with Lord’s Larder to support those whose situation has become desperate. We provide one-off donations of support, which might be just enough to help someone turn the corner, such as when we gave a microwave to a person who had no cooking facilities. We do shopping for those who have mobility issues and offer practical support.
Your donation will directly help those in need.
