Bishop Kevin’s Lent Appeal 2022 reverts to a pattern of alternating home-based charities with those based overseas as recipients. 

Children in Distress is a small but highly effective charity, whose head administrative office is in Glasgow, and whose work is dedicated to helping suffering children in Romania. They work with the sick, the incurably and terminally ill, those with HIV/AIDS, autistic spectrum conditions, people with disabilities and those who face a daily challenge for life as a result of accident, infection, genetic or congenital conditions, those who daily face discrimination or religious persecution, the socially excluded, the desperate and disadvantaged children and families, the poorest of the poor.

They care for children in the worst circumstances and as their mission statement makes clear, their role is – To cure, sometimes; to help, often; to comfort, always.

As a small charity, every penny really does count for Children in Distress: please give as generously as you can…
