Why run for Good Shepherd?
Good Shepherd has been supporting vulnerable and marginalised members of our community in Wolverhampton since 1972. We deliver services in a way that makes people feel valued and always try to hear their voice.
In 2024, almost 1,400 people accessed our service and thanks to ongoing support from people like you, we can continue to provide food, practical support, group activities and 1-1 support for people that need it most.
We value lived experience and believe everyone has the capacity to change and achieve their full potential.
