Together, we must act now to stop the devastating impact of COVID-19 on Derby City's most vulnerable, which is immediate but will also be felt for years to come.

Find out about how Derby City Mission has been responding to the current crisis and the forthcoming need within the community and Derby City Mission.

Like many organisations, we have been responding to the recent changes and challenges presented to us. Our Foodbank has never been in such demand and we are regularly feeding over 100 people per week.

Read about the impact our Jubilee Project has had on one person's life.

What a rollercoster few months it's been. On 24th March 2020 we took the difficult decision to close Derby Churches Nightershelter a week early because of the inability to observe social distancing rules.

Hear about how our Safe Space staff have been involved in the Government's initiative to get the homeless off the streets during the lockdown.

As the schools shut down we have turned to technology, using online videos to contine to reach the children with God's Word.

Tim Pawson tells us about what he has been doing to reach school children during lockdown.

We're finally in! Despite the challenges of Covid-19, we were able to start moving our operations into our new hub building at 10 Normanton Road on 29th May.

Richard gives an update on all the work that has been done on the building and our plans for future ministry.

Please join us in praying for our projects during Summer 2020
