Give Through a Will

700 Club Legacy

If you’re considering writing or updating your will, leaving a legacy is a very special and enduring way to support 700 Club. It is also straightforward and inexpensive to do.

With a legacy you can leave something behind that will have a lasting impact on those who follow after you and build on what you’ve valued of  the 700 Club’s work. Whether it’s our work in the Lodge or with those with drug and alcohol problems, with a legacy you can make sure that the most vulnerable people in our town are not forgotten.

If you would like to speak to someone at the 700 Club about this, please contact us on 01325 366397.

  • The Lodge

    The Lodge

    The Lodge offers a temporary 'home' for people who are in housing crisis. If you are already rough sleeping, or in danger of doing so, call us for advice or call in at the Council's Housing Department for a Gateway assessment. You can also self-refer.

  • Emergency Food

    Out of hours food is held by the 700 Club at its hostel St. George's Hall in Elmfield Street. The store is available for access on all evenings and during the weekend.

  • Our History

  • Early Intervention Outreach Project

    The 700 Club Early Intervention Project is a jointly funded partnership between Darlington Borough Council and Durham Police. It is based on the belief that big and costly problems can be prevented if they are addressed when they are still small.

  • Sponsor a room

    Sponsor a room

    We believe that no one should be left with no alternative but to sleep on the streets or on a friends sofa. To allow it diminishes not only those forced to do so but also those who know about it, but refuse to act. Together we can make a difference.

  • Volunteer for us

    We have opportunities for volunteering across all our projects, whether your skills are with people, with administration, or whether you have some other skill you would like to share ... music, drama, art, sport, gardening, the list is endless.

  • Our Achievements

    Our Achievements

    The 700 Club have provided nearly 400,000 bed-nights to those who would otherwise be forced to sleep rough, to sleep on a friend's floor, or to occupy some other kind of inappropriate accommodation.

Help those who beg

Help those who beg

Loose change feeds problems, it is not a solution. Help us bring support to those who beg. People beg for different reasons, but for all it is symptomatic of need. Help us to meet the person's needs so that they are not diminished by the need to beg. Read more
