Practical Team

The Practical Team

Neil shares the lastest update on how CAP and the Practical Team work together as well as a few behind the scenes stories, facts and figures.

The Practical Team was created during the Covid-19 pandemic as the church wanted to show the love of Jesus to the people of Brighton and Hove. We gathered volunteers and started to meet the practical needs of those around us.

Our team is here to stay. We know that as ordinary people we all need help sometimes, and we want to continue to stand with people facing difficulties in our city. So this is a team for those that need help and those that want to give help.

Need help?

If you, or someone you know, needs help with something then please let us know and we’ll do our best to help.

Get in touch with us via the next step form or call us on 01273 732111 and we’ll get back to you.

Give help

There’s a huge number of ways you could help – including practical, creative and financial ways.
