RESTORE HOPE SOUTH WEST

RHWS aims to relieve the needs of people in West Somerset with drug & alcohol dependency problems or who are homeless, single parents, families or elderly, by promoting good health; help with finding housing; and recreational facilities to help improve living conditions. As a Christian Charity we want to show the love of Jesus to everyone, to bring hope and rebuild damaged lives.
