Crisis Centre Ministries, or 'CCM', is a Christian charity that helps homeless and drug-addicted people in Bristol, England. We do this by running four projects: The Wild Goose, the LITE Course, East Bristol Foodbank and Spring Of Hope, a Ladies' Only Night Shelter.
The Wild Goose serves tens of thousands of hot, free meals every year, in addition to helping hundreds of people into emergency and supported accomodation, as well as helping in many other practical ways. The LITE course (Life-Skills and Initial Training for Employment) runs two courses focusing on building confidence and developing potential aimed at the long term under-employed.
East Bristol Foodbank is a recent project that provides food parcels to people who have been referred by front-line care professionals, such as: doctors, social workers etc. Spring Of Hope, our most recent project, provides eight beds for women who may otherwise sleep on the streets that night.
