Street Pastors
Street Pastors engage with people on the streets has introduced volunteer street pastors from six local churches to help make the streets feel safer by working with people to resolve a number of issues. A street pastor is someone from the Christian community who is willing to care, listen and help people, especially the vulnerable and young. They get to know people in the community by building relationships with them to discover their needs and what can be done to help them. Street pastors operate each weekend on a Saturday night between 10pm and 4am. They have a set patrol covering the High Street, Fore Street and Wilder Road, and also patrol Combe Martin during special events.
