Street Angels is celebrating five years of making a difference on the streets of Halifax!
Launched in November 2005 to address some of the issues around the night-time economy in Halifax town centre on Friday and Saturday nights - Street Angels has become a succesful project and made our town a better place...
- Violent crime and Sexual Assaults have reduced significantly
- Thousands of volunteer hours are invested into our town annually
- Thousands of people have received help and assistance - including elderly people leaving the theatre, young people who have become vulnerable in the town, those who are homeless, those who have had a few too many to drink and need a helping hand, visitors who need direction, people in need of basic first aid but not a trip to A&E...
- Helped many, through referrals to other agencies, move away from a life of drinking too much. Carried out presentations in schools and colleges around safe drinking
- Picked up thousands of glasses and bottles making the streets cleaner and safer
- It is a model of best practice that is making a difference in over seventy towns and cities across the UK!
Street Angels is the local church working in partnership with a wide range of agencies including: Police, Council, Town Centre Management, Community and Voluntary groups, Nightlife Marshals, Halifax Ambassadors, Pubs and Clubs.
Because of the difference Street Angels and the partnership working has made Halifax became a Purple Flag town (a new standard that recognises great entertainment and hospitality areas at night) in November 2010. This accolade is a testimony to the commitment and hard work invested in Halifax on a weekly basis...
