The Jubilee Project serves the city of Derby and believes in providing high-quality debt and benefit advice in line with our mission statement. Our aim is to share the good news through action, supporting vulnerable people through financial hardship based on a Christian ethos of love and compassion.
The Role is to Deliver support and advice to people through outreach clinics, with the aim to assist people to better their financial situation by applying for unclaimed benefits and advising on debt solutions that may be available to them. Working alongside churches, organisations and volunteers to develop the Jubilee Project to maintain and exceed high standards of advice to the poorest, marginalised and vulnerable in the city.
Derby City Mission was established in 1989 by Geoff Holland. He was moved to action upon seeing the conditions that poverty brings – poor housing conditions, homelessness, hunger, debt, and addictions. His heart was to reach out to meet the spiritual, as well as the physical and material needs, of local people. Our mission remains unchanged: seeing our city and people flourish. We do this through our Christian faith and action, practically meeting the needs as we look to God for guidance in all we do.
Uniquely, our strength comes from an army of over 150 volunteers who, often through the love of Jesus and strong compassion for the poor and most vulnerable, bring hope and support to those who need it most.
From Jubilee debt advice clinics through to providing warm food and a safe place to sleep for the homeless, we aim to meet people wherever they are on their journey in life. Go to 'What We Do' to find out more.
We are a stepping stone in the right direction driven by prayer, compassion and action. We take a holistic approach in all we do so our partner churches and agencies are fantastic at supporting each client or guest, forging relationships and never giving up. We couldn’t transform lives without doing so in partnership.
