                                            The Shrewsbury Ark Launches Urgent Winter Appeal
This week, My Shrewsbury’s James Warman visited The Shrewsbury Ark — a lifeline for people facing homelessness — to learn more about their Winter Appeal and the devastating reality that, without additional funding, their doors may have to close.
For over 50 years, The Ark has been a place of warmth, hope and support for those who need it most — offering hot meals, showers, medical care, advice and friendship. But rising costs mean this vital service is now at risk.
If 1,000 people in Shrewsbury can give just £5 a month, The Ark can keep its doors open and continue its life-changing work.

Let’s make sure those familiar blue doors stay open this winter — because for so many in our community, The Ark is more than a building. It’s a lifeline.
