Supporting Charities in 2023

 

Every year church supports two specific charities with one being a local charity and the other a charity working abroad.

 

This year we are supporting:

Lanchester Village Link Bus

Many people use the bus to enable them to do shopping in the village, meet friends and attend appointments. 

The Village link bus service is funded by voluntary contributions, commissioned by Lanchester Partnership and operated by Stanley Travel.  


The charity abroad is Health and Hope. The charity’s mission is to bring primary health care, education, hope and development to the poorest people in and around Chin State, Myanmar (Burma). Health & Hope UK (healthandhope.org)

 

Some of our other charity activities


Food  banks Donations of food, toiletries and cleaning materials for the Food Banks can be brought to church on Monday and Wednesday mornings from 11am -12noon.


In addition to the named charities we also respond when there are global and local issues and every Christmas we collect toys for the Salvation Army Toy Appeal and shoeboxes for the Samaritan's Purse appeal.

 

Coffee mornings, normally held on Saturday mornings, also raise money for a variety of charities.
