Crisis in Ukraine
If you would like information on the crisis and/or would like to explore how we might help, please see the information provided on the web pages of the Church of England and the Diocese of Bristol, which are available via the 'Useful Links' button on the menu on the left-hand side of this page. The link will take you to the page where the information can be found under the heading of 'Charity and Mission Work'. In addition, you can help through Christian Aid, which is a member of the UK Disaster Emergency Committee (UK DEC). UK DEC is operating a Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal, and Christian Aid is collecting on its behalf. The UK government has pledged to match pound for pound up to £20 million donated by the public to this appeal.

This month, we’re walking 300,000 steps to raise money for Christian Aid Week 2022. As part of this, we’re going to host two guided walks and want to invite everybody (of all faiths or none) to join us. These walks will take place on Tuesday 17th May and Saturday 21st May.
Have you ever wanted to explore the countryside paths but are worried about getting lost? Do you want to make new friends in the village? Or explore new parts of Wiltshire or Gloucestershire? If the answer is yes, join us for one of these walks… On 17th, we’ll be doing the Box Heritage Trail (4.5 miles with some uphill bits). We’ll start from Selwyn Hall in Box at 10am, stopping at the Quarryman’s Arms for lunch. Dogs are welcome on this walk. As for the Saturday walk, this is where we need your help. We’ve had so many wonderful suggestions that we can’t decide which route we should follow. Help us decide by voting via this link and we’ll announce the details on Tuesday 10th May. Don’t worry – whichever route we take, we’ll stop halfway through for lunch Literary Walk: Painswick via Slad Valley (think Cider with Rosie country) – 5 miles Stoneage Walk: Avebury to West Kennet Long Barrow and return via Woodhenge, the Ridgeway and up the Avenue – 6 miles Railway Walk: Calne via Bowood to Derry Hill and then back to Calne via disused railway – 8 miles Canal Walk: Chippenham to Lacock and back, along the Wilts & Berks canal – 5.5 miles Purton along the Severn to Sharpness viewing the beached ships.
