A massive, very grateful thank you to everyone who donated to our donation boxes in sainsburys paignton, the two paignton Lidls, raised money and donations at coffee mornings, raffles, local churches, schools, the generosity from individuals, local businesses, running groups, services, hospitals, dental practices, all our Greggs stores, and Tash with her remarkable energy and marketing skills.
Every single present, shoe box, rucksack, tent, sleeping bag, handwarmers, socks, reverse advent calendars, pennies, pounds, sandwiches, food tin or packet, has helped raise a smile and hope throughout the year and Christmas 2025.
Path couldn’t provide this vital care without all of you.
Happy New year 🎉🎉

Happy New year 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you all so much, for your incredible hard work and loyalty, supporting the important life line path offers to anyone struggling.

From the insane carloads of valuable donations you’ve collected, volunteers behind the scenes organising the day to day running of our charity, admin answering people reaching out for support and complicated sandwich rotas, to our patient, caring team of volunteers in our centre, who tirelessly pack rooms full of bakery, fill thousands of bags of food, respectfully listen to those who others have given up on, and together, all of us, as a big Path family, all play our part to keep Path vital services running.

Here’s to a successful new year, where we will sadly meet more new faces, all needing understanding and hope, as Path continues to help anyone new or old, towards a brighter future.

It’s easier to just wish for a fairer world, and watch from the sidelines feeling powerless.
Since Christmas 2015 , path have continually stepped up , saved lives, given back hope, dignity and dreams, encouraged others to rebuild their lives, wiped tears, and been a safe space for probably thousands.

Sadly this is also a time to remember those who didn’t make it. It was a privilege to meet them and we all hope that they are finally at Peace.

Collectively , Path volunteers, with determination and hard work, really can help to make the wish of a kinder world, really happen.
Here’s to 2026 🎉🎉

Torbay council are activating SWEP (Severe Weather Emergency Protocol) for 3 nights inclusive from tonight, Christmas Eve wednesday 24th 2025 through to Friday Boxing Day 26th 2025 (inclusive). This SWEP provision is based on weather reviews but it’s looking like big gusts with windchill of 1 degrees over the weekend, so fingers crossed they do the right thing and extend SWEP.
We will keep you posted.
