Welcome to JHC,

Every year our experienced Support team helps around 500 individuals and families living in and around Sawston and those with strong connections to the village. 

The team is quite busy at the moment, you may have to wait a little longer for an appointment but we really want to help. So it’s especially important to contact us sooner rather than later if you have a worry or need some advice.  Please also encourage anyone you know who might need our support to get in touch. Simply telephone, email or drop in to our High Street offices and we will do everything possible to help you. All our enquiries are dealt with in complete confidence.

During 2026 we will continue to work hard to support our clients including managing and building new partnerships with like-minded organisations locally.

If you would like to donate to our food bank you can find a list of items on our support us page.

Jill Hayden,

Charity Manager
