Compass is the name given to a group of community based projects that all revolve around the common theme of food and friendship. They seek to support the homeless and families and individuals living below the poverty line by offering varying levels of support and signposting. There are currently three ongoing projects that run throughout the week.
What we do:
Compass Breakfast Nuneaton: |
United Reformed Church Nuneaton, CV11 5QH. Every Monday at 11:15-12:00am. Guests are invited into this project to receive free hot drinks and a cooked breakfast. Our volunteers help to create a welcoming and friendly environment that offers some of the most vulnerable people in our community a place of safety and shelter. Often we meet practical needs beyond the breakfast, such as providing sleeping bags, warm clothing, toiletries and tents.

Compass Drop-In Bedworth: |
Life Church, Bedworth, CV12 9DG. Every Wednesday 12:00-14:00pm.
This is our newest project that started in September 2019. We aim to offer our guests better signposting to referral agencies and partners through one-to-one contact at our drop-in. Similar to our Compass Breakfast, hot food and drinks are available in a relaxed and warm space. |
Compass Wednesday evening: |
St Nicholas Parish Church, Nuneaton, CV11 4AZ. Every Wednesday 6:30-8:00pm. This project is unique as it not only offers hot food and drinks, but also runs the Alpha Course. Guests are invited to arrive from 6:30pm to take part in the Alpha Course where they can have a meal, watch the weeks video and join in discussions around different faith topics. If they do not want to take part there is also the opportunity to take-away a hot meal from 7:30pm.

Our Vision:
Our vision is simple and practical. We want to meet needs until their is no need for us to carry on. We don’t just want to meet needs, but go beyond in ways that see people thrive, not just survive. Every life is worth far more than we can ever know and if we can provide practical help that shows people just a glimpse of how much they are worth, then we will continue to do so.
"I was hungry and you fed me,
I was thirsty and you gave me a drink,
I was homeless and you gave me a room,
I was shivering and you gave me clothes,
I was sick and you stopped to visit,
I was in prison and you came to me.’”
Matthew 25:35-36 - MSG
