Pastors Cartoon

Street Pastors and Prayer Pastors are Christians drawn from a cross-section of local churches with a concern for their local community.   They seek to provide a reassuring presence by patrolling and praying for the streets of their town late at night.

Pioneered in London in January 2003, and operating in Tavistock since late 2009, Street Pastors has seen some remarkable results, including reductions in crime and anti-social behaviour along with an increased sense of peace and safety for those out and about late on Friday and Saturday nights.

By engaging in a non-judgemental way with people on the streets, Street Pastors seek to care, listen and help in whatever way they can. For more information please see Tavistock Street Pastors or email .

At present we have 10 School Pastors and 10 Prayer Pastors, who have completed the training, and there appears to be interest from others in attending training in the autumn for both Street and School Pastors.
