Charities we support as a church
We have a rolling programme whereby we support three charities for up to three years. Each year we review one category and members vote on which charity they would like to support for the next three years.
Overseas Medical
Watoto Child Care Ministries – Baby Home Special Needs Fund.
The daughter of one of our members is an Occupational Therapist and volunteers each week in the Baby Home. Our donation will help provide essential equipment to enable babies and young children with special needs to flourish and live as independently as possible.
Overseas Development
Open doors
Every day, millions of Christians risk their lives to follow Jesus. In more than 70 countries, Open Doors supports them by supplying Bibles, providing emergency relief and helping persecuted believers stand strong for the long-term.
UK
