Refuge Network Welcomes A Team of Volunteers from the UK's Department for Science, Innovation and Technology

The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) is a ministerial department of the government of the United Kingdom. It is responsible for accelerating innovation, investment and productivity through world-class science, ensuring that new and existing technologies are safely developed and deployed across the UK and driving forward a modern digital government for the benefit of its citizens.

Our community program in Central London recently benefited from the generous support of a small team of volunteers from the DSIT. Led by Jake Bonnyman, Senior Strategic Communications Officer, they dedicated their time to providing meals and vital support to homeless and marginalized individuals at our outdoor soup kitchen and also supported rough sleepers in various locations. We are profoundly grateful for their commitment to serving our community!
