BEACON has moved!
17 Aug 2018

At the end of June, BEACON moved premises along with Touchstone, where BEACON has been renting a small office for many years. We are thrilled with our new working space and the facilities available here and are pleased to be able to work more closely with Abigail Housing who do fantastic work accommodating destitute asylum seekers in Bradford, and who are now also based at Touchstone. Our new address is: BEACON c/o Touchstone, 4 Easby Road, Bradford, BD7 1QX Below is a picture of our lovely new home!

People are Saying

‘The energy and sheer commitment of some of our older volunteers was staggering. […] They seemed to relish the challenge, excitement and wealth of new relationships that Asylum Seekers had to offer them. […] BEACON was soon feeding rich spiritual resources into Bradford churches as Asylum Seekers shared their stories and songs. […] As the original Chair of Beacon, I salute those who have sustained and developed the work over the second five years and the witness they continue to offer to the churches and to the city.’

Rev Geoff Reid, former Chair of BEACON
