INTRODUCING BETEL UKTHE Rising café STAFF
Betel is a Christian charity which offers free, life-transforming help to people with drug and alcohol addictions. Our peer-led residential communities are based on a commitment to long-term change, brought about through the restoration of individuals to healthy, productive life-styles. We aim to achieve this by providing structured and supportive communal living, and by instilling discipline, values and skills through therapeutic work in a variety of charitable businesses.
Since opening its doors in Birmingham in 1996, Betel has established centres across several major UK cities and cared for thousands of men and women, the majority of whom were previously homeless or exiting prison. Receiving no government funding, the charity meets the majority of its costs through businesses operated by the residents themselves – such as Rising Cafe!
Every penny earned in our businesses goes directly towards helping to restore once-broken lives, like those pictured below – your servers and chefs!
