Release! Ipswich

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners. Isaiah 61:1

Trustees - Liz Beaton (Chairman), Peter Matthews (Treasurer), Rev. Jackie Sears Catherine Fenn, Jonathan Barnes.

Release! Ipswich seeks to help individuals who are subject to addictive behaviour to find the release and wholeness available in Christ

We aim to do this by 
· praying against the supply and misuse of illegal substances and anything promoting harmful behaviour, and for all those affected by any sort of compulsive or addictive behaviour
· to promote a better understanding amongst Christians of compulsive and addictive behaviour, preparing them to mentor those who need help
· to be mentors, encouraging positive choices, teaching the Christian faith and nurturing relationships with Christ

Restore
They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated. Isaiah 61:4

Restore is a Christian organisation aiming to support anyone struggling because of eating disorders, by offering a befriending scheme based in Ipswich and the surrounding area. 
Befrienders are ordinary people who have either recovered from an eating disorder or who have cared for someone struggling with an eating disorder, and now offer support to other sufferers or carers in the journey to recovery.
