Last year St. Alban's, St. Andrew's, St. Edward's, the Methodist Church and Our Lady Help of Christians raised a total of £3,979.31 in Christian Aid week. The money was raised by house-to-house collections, The Big Breakfast, Circle the City, a Sponsored Read-In and a coffee morning. Our usual activities this year are cancelled due to the coronavirus but we hope it will still be possible to raise a good amount through the generosity of our congregations.

Christian Aid will be running live streamed worship each day during CAW as well as a fun daily quiz. To join you need to register through the Christian Aid website for these events.

Love never fails.
Coronavirus impacts all of us. But love unites us all.

You've already shown incredible kindness to your neighbours.
Now is the time to reach out to your neighbours both near and far.

Your love protects. From storms, from drought, and now from coronavirus.
Your love protects our global neighbours battling the spread of this illness.
Your love protects. With soap, clean water and medical supplies.

By supporting us this Christian Aid Week you can reach out and protect more of your neighbours today.

For over 70 years, we've been standing with the poorest of our neighbours, with people of all faiths and none, to stand up for dignity, equality and justice. Let's stand together with our neighbours near and far.
