Chequers Lane Xmas Multi Location Dinner (XMLD), 21 November 2020
As the days get colder and the nights draw in, thousands of people who are experiencing homelessness or are vulnerably housed become more at risk in the UK. Hosting a Sunday Gathering is a simple way to raise urgently needed funds to help them.

Story

What about bringing our annual Xmas Multi Location Dinner (XMLD) in Chequers Lane for a virtual Christmas Gathering on 19th December and provide essential support for the St Martin-in-the-Fields Christmas Appeal? 

The plan is to have a virtual party on zoom or similar and chat to neighbours whilst making merry with nibbles and drinks.  Prizes and Christmas Hamper raffle.

As the days get colder and the nights draw in, thousands of people who are experiencing homelessness or are vulnerably housed become more at risk in the UK. Hosting this XMLD Gathering is a simple way to raise urgently needed funds to help them.  As my XMLD Gathering guests, you can RSVP by making a Just Giving donation. The suggested amount is £20, although contributions of any value are welcome.

About the charity

The money we raise directly supports people in three ways: The Connection at St Martin-in-the-Fields, a day and night centre in London; the Vicar’s Relief Fund, offering crisis grants throughout the UK; and the Frontline Network, supporting those who help people away from homelessness across the UK.
