Volunteering for Crossways Community

Crossways Community is a Christian charity working for better mental health in the community around Tunbridge Wells. We offer a variety of accommodation including residential care, also suitable for those who need a period of rehabilitation before moving on to semi-independent living, or floating support for those in our independent flats.

We also have Flourish, a community garden project; the Kitchen Table café; and Reboot, raising awareness of mental health issues in schools, for parents and in the community.

As a volunteer you will help us to promote improved mental health in the community through information and education. Crossways Community delivers care and support, recognises potential, encourages independence and promotes self-worth.
