Love Dereham is a local charity seeking to catalyse community action, fostering cooperation with other agencies and individuals throughout our community, to support those in need and show love to the people of Dereham.

​

The charity was founded in 2011, formerly known as Dereham Community Support Centre. From its inception it has been closely linked with Dereham Baptist Church, and we are also pleased to be working with the Churches Together group - maximising the number of people we can reach in our community. 

 

We offer a range of projects that deliver love in practical, tangible ways. Please take a look at the specific pages for more details. 

​

Love Dereham has a Christian ethos at the heart of all that it seeks to do. However, no service user or volunteer will be discriminated against in respect of their faith, background or sexuality.
