FOR Milton Keynes

We love our city. Let's make it better.

From the MK Food Bank Top-Up Shop every Friday to our Crisis Fund, free money courses and partners right across the city, we work alongside others to make Milton Keynes a better place to live.

How we help

We focus on four areas across Milton Keynes. Here's what we do in each, and where to find help.

Poverty and disadvantage

We run the MK Food Bank Top-Up Shop every Friday at Venture Oldbrook and free money management classes, and our Crisis Fund can sometimes help in the short term.

Homelessness

We work alongside local organisations to help people find somewhere safe to stay. [PLACEHOLDER: what we do and who we partner with]

Mental health and wellbeing

Qualified, independent counsellors are available on request, and we can point you to local mental health support.

Crime and safety

Our work here includes time in local prisons, like our Father's Day events at HMP Woodhill. [PLACEHOLDER: other work in this area and the partners we work with]

We're here for you

Here for our community

We work alongside local organisations, so people across Milton Keynes can find friendly places to meet and practical support, whether or not they come to church.

Here for local organisations

Through All In, our church family has given to and worked alongside organisations right across Milton Keynes. [PLACEHOLDER: organisations we have connected with and what we have given]

Here in a crisis

When there is no other help available, our crisis fund can step in. It works through referrals from our partner organisations.

Here to help you find help

Not sure where to turn? We'll point you to the people in Milton Keynes who can help, from food and money to housing and mental health.

Honest about what we can do

We can't always help with everything ourselves. When we can't, we won't leave you without somewhere to go. We'll help you find someone who can.
