Organisation Profile: Life for the World

Life For The World began almost 40 years ago, as a response to needs within the London area, where rough sleepers, and drugs users were becoming more noticed by the general public. Four decades on, and LFTW remains committed to working across the UK with thousands of addicts, their friends, families and projects who work alongside them - offering training, partnerships, support and advice.

Robin Rolls was appointed as the Executive Director for Life For The World in January 2007. Formerly he was the Adviser on Youth Ministry for 3 Bishops of Birmingham and has been involved in youth work since about 1990.

He says: “I think Life For The World is a highly significant organisation, and in the next few years we are hoping to gradually increase our profile throughout the UK. Currently we are the only organisation of our kind offering high quality, accredited training, workshops, and half day / evening seminars to those working in this area.”

The website has full details on LFTW work. You can visit them on www.lftw.org and at any time contact the team on 0845 241 0973 to find out how they can help your organisation / project / church as you tackle drug issues in your community.

A full list of training dates can also be found on the website, and they are always happy to come to you and do seminars, or even general drugs awareness courses for parents or carers.
