Changed Lives

During my last stint in prison I decided I wanted to change, but I didn’t know how; I couldn’t break free from my addiction… I found out about Betel on the internet and decided to give it a go… Today I live in the knowledge that God has set me free; as the bible promises I’ve been changed… Ring Betel today; there’s a new life waiting for you… (More)

About Betel

Betel of Britain is a group of caring, not-for-profit Christian communities in the heart of the UK dedicated to restoring homeless and long-term unemployed people to healthy, independent lifestyles. We train men and women in a wide range of life and employment skills, enabling them to rebuild a strong work ethic. All of our residences are drug- and alcohol-free and totally free of charge (see ‘Admission Procedures’ for more details). We offer the opportunity of restoration to all persons who seek our help.

We currently have centres in Birmingham, Derby, Hexham, Manchester, Nottingham, Watford and in Dublin, with room for around 340 men and women.  Entry to our residences is extremely simple and very quick; we can usually take people the next day, following a successful telephone interview.

Thousands of men and women have broken free from addiction through the work of Betel; if you, or someone you know is struggling with addiction there is hope of a new life in our centres.
