About The Salvation Army, Coventry
The Salvation Army is predominantly an evangelical Christian church but it is so much more besides! We're also a homeless charity, a social service agency, a chain of charity shops and a leader in the fight against human trafficking and modern slavery. Throughout the UK and Ireland, The Salvation Army is reaching out to the most vulnerable in our society through our support for victims of modern slavery and for those experiencing homelessness. Our centres provide community outreach and engagement through various support schemes and here in Coventry, we are no different as we put our Christian faith into action by offering practical help for people without discrimination, standing up for those who are vulnerable, fighting against injustice and encouraging people to develop their relationship with God. The services we offer are diverse and responsive to the realities of life in the communities we serve.
