King's Arms Project

Who we are

The Kings Arms Project was started over 30 years ago as a response to seeing people sleeping rough on the streets of Bedford. Founded on the Biblical mandate for social justice, we have grown into a charity which works with the local community and National Government. We provide professional advice, innovative solutions and person centered care to those at risk of homelessness and social isolation.

Our Vision

Every person thriving in a place they call home, living a fulfilling life in community

Our Mission

To tackle homelessness, displacement and social isolation by:

• Providing opportunities for people to thrive and have a home

• Connecting people into meaningful communities.

• Demonstrating the love of Jesus 

• Advocating for Justice

Our culture and values

Our Values 

Hope – We believe there is hope for everyone, always 

Community - We all thrive when are connected in community

God is Good - We depend on God and His goodness for everything we do

Learning & Excellence - By seeking to learn, listen and grow we are better able to achieve excellence in all that we do

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

We are committed to Equal Opportunities for all individuals or groups, whilst also being committed to promoting a positive attitude towards diversity within our charity. We aim to ensure that all employees can maximise their potential and enhance their selfdevelopment and their contribution to KAP. 

The aim of KAP is to embrace the differences that various cultures bring into our charity, and we also recognise that people from different backgrounds can bring fresh ideas and perceptions, which ultimately can improve our services, and our working environment. Managing diversity successfully will help KAP to nurture creativity and innovation, thereby allowing us to tap hidden capacity for growth and improved service provision.
