Teen Challenge East Dorset

Teen Challenge Dorset (TCD) is a Christian Outreach Organisation serving Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, and the surrounding area. We focus on helping those in the community who have life controlling addictions and many of whom are homeless

TCD is part of the charity TCUK which has 6 residential rehabs across the country, 4 for men and 2 for women, they all provide the same 11 month program.

Here in Bournemouth we have two paid support workers who offer 1-1 support to individuals caught in addiction, and we have outreach teams of volunteers from various Churches who go out on the streets of Boscombe, Bournemouth and Poole. Volunteers build relationships with those they meet and offer crucial support.
