Spurgeons is a charitable organisation charity based in England with international projects in Africa and Eastern Europe.
Spurgeons was founded in 1867 by Charles Haddon Spurgeon, to care for fatherless boys (the first girls were accepted in 1879). The original orphanage, in Stockwell, was the base for most of the charity's first century, until a move to Reigate and then Birchington, in Kent.
The orphanage was closed in 1979. Since then the charity's work has grown and developed across the UK and around the world.
Spurgeons head office is based in Rushden with several offices in the UK.
Spurgeons works in 7 geographic regions each run by an Assistant Director who has direct responsibility for any projects operating in the area.
Spurgeons works with vulnerable families, children and young people.
Spurgeons also has projects in Kenya, Uganda and Eastern Europe
