Ipswich CAP project needs Support Workers

 

Liz Webber, who runs the project, says “We urgently need Support Workers to help and befriend clients, with the aim of bringing them into Christian fellowship. This may include accompanying the debt advisor on visits, meeting the client for coffee, taking them food shopping, sending small gifts to encourage them, and praying for them.”

 

The project currently has five new clients who will need supporting over coming weeks. Liz says “Without new Support Workers, we may have to turn these people away.”
