WANTAGE AND GROVE
STREET PASTORS
Welcome to Wantage & Grove Street Pastors.
We are part of a national team first pioneered in 2003.
Street pastors are trained volunteers from local churches who care about our community.
We patrol on Friday and Saturday nights in Wantage & Grove to care for, listen to and help people who are out on the streets. In September 2024 we started a monthly afternoon patrol in Wantage.
We have been patrolling at night since 2009 and have made a significant contribution to making our streets safer at night and helping to reduce certain types of crime.
We are supported by local churches and community groups in partnership with the police, local council and other statutory agencies.
If you are interested in finding out more about our work, or are interested in becoming a Street Pastor, please contact us using the details on our Contact Us page.
Wantage & Grove Street Pastors is a registered charity in England & Wales. In 2025 we registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) number 1205598. Previously our Charity Number was 1134429.
What We Do
Street Pastors
