Cornerstone Drop In


"For I was hungry & you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty & you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger & you invited me in”
(Matt 25:35-36).

 

Drop In operates on Mondays and Wednesdays from 2.00–4.00 p.m. in the back hall of The Cornerstone Centre, welcoming around 20–30 people each session.

Our dedicated team of volunteers provides a warm, safe and friendly environment for people in our community who may be experiencing poverty, social isolation or homelessness.

Everyone who comes to Drop In is welcomed with a smile. We offer a hot snack, drinks, cake and biscuits, creating a relaxed space where people can enjoy something to eat, spend time with others and feel part of a community.

We recognise that some of our guests may be living with addiction, mental health challenges or financial pressures, while others may be without stable accommodation. Drop In offers consistent, compassionate support and a point of stability for those whose lives may feel lonely or chaotic.

Drop In began in a converted bus, then moved to Millfield Hall, Cheriton Road in 2008 and later in 2018 to The Cornerstone Centre where it now sits alongside SKCC’s wider community initiatives. Over the years, Drop In has become a trusted and valued service within the local community.
