What is the Olive Branch?
The Olive Branch exists to help those in crisis take steps towards safe and stable housing while providing encouragement and community at every stage. It is a collaboration between HT Hounslow, Hounslow Evangelical Church, and The St John’s Marthoma Church. We offer a safe community space with food, showers, and clothing; we partner with local charities and agencies to provide the practical help people need.
