Learning to be human: the work of hospitality

Jo Frew writes about faith in action

Martha House is a house of hospitality in Tottenham. It is a way to support the homeless and lonely. I attend Tottenham Meeting, and almost four years ago my partner and I set up Martha House and have been living there, supporting the residents, ever since. We take referrals, settle people in, get them connected to helpful organisations, and try to keep things ticking over, as well as cover all the costs from our earnings and donations.
