Story

Costs are rising, and as we move further into winter many households in Bothwell will be plunged into fuel and real poverty. How can you help?

Bothwell Futures and Bothwell Parish Church are working side by side to open the church building as a warm place, offering FREE tea, coffee, and a warm lunch and supper.

There will also be lots of activities for all ages and the whole community such as jigsaws, puzzles, colouring in pages for adults and children as well as PS5s and a cosy homework corner.

As well as the church being a warm place we are also opening a FREE community larder in a temporary prefab building down the side of Bothwell Parish Church to be a private base where you can pick your own dried, tinned and long-life food, toiletries and other goods to pop into a bag to take home and help you get through the week.

This all costs money and we can't do it without you. If you are able, please consider donating towards this cause and help us keep the members of our community safe, warm and fed.

About the charity

We are situated in the heart of the community, a place where all are welcome on and offline, a place where no one is a stranger. The church building itself is ancient, dating back to 1398 and requires ongoing maintenance to safeguard its future and allow us to be here for the next generation.
