Funders

Here at St Luke's we are truly grateful for the fantastic support that we receive from individuals, companies and other charities, whether in the form of financial donations, volunteering, gifts of products or simply pro bono time. All this is what makes our work possible, particularly in 2020 when the Centre has had to close for months and emergency provisions put in place to help our local community.

St Luke's has a fantastic resource in its Community Centre building. Although normally this is used to host services, activities and events, when the Centre was closed to the public we have been able to store food and essentials to give out to our community during the pandemic.
