Founded in 1991 by a local group of Christians, The Door has been at the heart of the Stroud district for over 30 years.
The Door travels with people for the long term – walking alongside them, carrying the burden and never giving up.
OUR VISION
A society where every YOUNG PERSON’S FUTURE is determined by their POTENTIAL not their past
OUR MISSION
Bringing HOPE into the lives of YOUNG PEOPLE and their FAMILIES by UNLOCKING POTENTIAL and OPENING OPPORTUNITY so that their PAST does not define their FUTURE
OUR VALUES
But the HOLY SPIRIT produces this kind of fruit in our lives: LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS AND SELF-CONTROL. There is no law against these things!
The Bible: Galatians 5:22, 'The Fruits Of The Spirit'
