Welcome to St Paul's Hostel Website

|
The hostel has been concentrating on developing the activities that are
available
to clients on
a daily/weekly and more irregular basis.
We can now offer guitar
lessons, baking, film nights, quiz nights, as well as the allotment,
great walks-big and small- and twice weekly appointments at the Good
Soil Project. We have badminton and basic or advanced computing in the
pipeline, to be run by volunteers. One-off projects have included a photo marathon and repainting the downstairs of the hostel.
If there are any activities that you would like to offer, or help with, please let the Volunteer Coordinator
know. Please look around our website to see how we can help you and how you can help us.
