Street Pastors is a Christian organisation run by volunteers who are simply willing to care, listen and help. The volunteers normally operate between 10pm and 4am on Fridays and Saturday in town and city centres. John Britton, chairman of the trustees, said: "The aim of Street Pastors is not to preach and proselytise but to simply show the love of God in a Good Samaritan sort of way. Volunteers must be 18 or over, be committed to the Christian fellowship for more than a year and complete a DBS check. Volunteers will receive full training.
