Welcare means...
"A lifeboat for families who are sinking into despair and need our help"

Local Advisory & Support Groups
Each of our 9 Welcare centres is supported by a Local Advisory and Support Group, often known as 'Friends'.
The group consists of local people - many from churches, some past users of our services, and some from local voluntary organisations or other similar services. They work hard to keep the profile of Welcare high in the local community and on the agenda of local churches, through mailings, talks and publicity materials.
They are vital in raising local funding necessary to keep the work alive. Some are service volunteers in the centre. In addition they provide invaluable informal support to the staff and volunteers, and in some cases offer a chaplaincy role.
