Southampton Street Pastors are Christian volunteers from different churches who care about the safety and wellbeing of their community. We are team comprising all ages and abilities, and are known for being a peaceful and practical help on the streets and a caring, listening and helpful presence in our communities. We are an approachable and non-judgemental group looking after anyone who is in need of support, uniquely identifiable by our uniforms, our caps and our bags.

As followers of Jesus, we are challenged to share His love outside of the four walls of the church, meeting people where they are. We give our time for free because of our faith in Jesus Christ. We care and are passionate about everyone feeling safe in their communities, and do all we can to make a continuing difference.
