We work closely with the parish of St. Thomas, Werneth.

UNICEF

Our annual appeal for the international children’s charity UNICEF runs throughout Lent. Please consider donating to this important organisation which brings urgently needed relief to children - the innocent victims of war, disasters and other emergencies across the world.

You can put cash or cheques in the large jar at the back of church, or give through the contactless card reader (please ensure that UNICEF is selected from the list of campaigns - please ask for help if unsure!)

Thank you so much.
