Emmanuel House

Emmanuel House is a Day Centre in Nottingham working with vulnerable & disadvantaged people who may be experiencing problems such as homelessness, mental health difficulties, drug or alcohol dependency and / or learning difficulties. SI Nottingham provides Christmas Presents and last year on Saturday of Service members painted at room at the centre.

Each year about nine of the members provide Mock Interviews for pupils coming up to first job/placement interview at a local comprehensive school

Nottingham - The Community Garden

Every six weeks three or four members maintain a Community Garden.

Four or five members assist at the Contact Centre where children of divorced parents can meet the non-resident parent in safety

Annually about a dozen Members act as hostesses for International students at Nottingham University - introducing them to the city and to English life.

The club also supports a local Women's Refuge - providing starter packs for all residents; Christmas presents for women and children. They have also bought a computer, furnished an outside play area and are now re-doing a lounge and showers.
