Who We Are

Inspired by community spirit and the gift of giving, the Rapid Relief Team (RRT) serves people with care and compassion in their time of need.

Help us make a difference

Established by the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church (PBCC) in 2013, RRT offers quality catering assistance and tangible support to charities, government and emergency services confronting some of humankind’s greatest challenges. RRT adapts their benevolent support services to meet the need at hand. Whether it be fire, drought or even a global pandemic, RRT volunteers bring hope to people in their time of need.

Led by the Christian principles of care and compassion, our army of volunteers operate from the heart to serve people in need. Our Christian values and beliefs are central to everything we do, because we know that faith-based action can change the lives of people who need it most.

I loved having your wonderful team with us. I think you are superb, and people kept coming up to me saying how wonderful you were! Organised, incredibly friendly and helpful and wonderful food – your hamburgers should be in a competition – can’t be beaten!
