DISC Newquay helps the most vulnerable in our society. We provide free food 4 days a week, help with heating costs, provide clothing, haircuts and help with housing, debt, mental health and pets in a safe and welcoming atmosphere. We are a Christian charity made up of volunteers over various churches in Newquay who have a heart and passion to serve in the community those who are disadvantaged and those who are homeless.
Our aim as a charity is to enhance and help pre existing organisations in not only Newquay but Cornwall. By networking with other agencies we aim to help those who are homeless and those who potentially might be.
This year’s conference looks at the heart of God as we celebrate all He loves. This year we will also be providing a space for mums to bring their children up to primary age. The team are equipped and ready to cater for your child’s needs. This ensures all are able to access the teaching on offer.

Jesus said “I have come to give you everything in abundance, more than you expect — life in its fullness until you overflow!” John 10:10 Whether you’re new to faith or you’ve been walking with Jesus a long time, come and take a step towards living in God’s full blessings for you. Restoring the Foundations is for anyone who desires healing and freedom. Last year in October over 60 people came to this event. This session will be similar, but will be run by Jules and John. Come along if you want a refresher, or if you missed the last one and would like to find out about RTF this time round. As before – it’s for anyone who wants to receive healing from God, and also it’s the first step for anyone who wants to get trained in helping other people through RTF.
This day is FREE – we ask if possible for donations for the refreshments that will be available during the day. We recommend to bring your own Lunch or there are plenty of places to purchase a sandwich.

Worshipping Friends is a registered charity based in Cornwall and a collective of worshippers and musicians from around the South West. “Simply loving God, going as He leads and playing a part in the restoration of night and day worship in the nations.”
We believe practising the Greatest Commandment, loving God with our all, is our highest honour and the most significant act here on earth. He moves powerfully through the praise and worship of His people. We love to gather, linking with local churches, for extended times of worship. Giving Him all the glory and space to do what only He can do in hearts, households, communities and localities.
From Friday 3rd January to Saturday 11 th January we are excited to gather for 8 days of continuous worship. Worshippers and musicians from across the county gathering together to simply fix our eyes on Jesus, lift up His Name and say ‘Yes and Amen’ to all He has for Cornwall and our nation.
All are welcome to pop in for as little or as much time as suits, whether it’s to sit and be or join us in singing His praise. We understand there are many different styles and expressions of worship throughout the church and these gatherings could be described as informal, contemporary and prophetic worship. Worshippers and musicians release hymns, psalms, new songs, loving and honouring God and loving and honouring each other as we stand together in corporate worship.For more details check out our facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/worshippingfriends
