Charities and events

Little Larder
The church operates a Little Larder, which provides non-perishable food and toiletries to those in need. The items are held in small cupboards located in the South Porch of the church and they are available on an anonymous, self-help basis at any time of the day and night. Please take what you need and replenish the items when and/or if you can. |
Crisis in Ukraine
If you would like information on the crisis and/or would like to explore how parishes can help, please see the information provided on the web pages of the Church of England here and the Diocese of Bristol here. 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. You can find out more about Christian Aid's response and make a donation to the appeal here |
