Christmas Cheer - sharing the love

Thanks to the generosity of the churches in Ham and Petersham, both congregations and individuals, and supported by local scouting families, this year we were able to put together 83 boxes full of Christmas joy on Saturday morning. That's eleven more than last year! What's more, each box contained a Sainsbury's voucher for £25 rather than last year's £20, because we're conscious that everyday food costs more this winter. The boxes are already going out to the families who have been identified by our four local schools - St Richard's, Meadlands, The Russell and Grey Court - as especially deserving of a treat this Christmas. So THANK YOU to all who contributed - your donation made a real difference.
Thank you too to the fantastic group of volunteers who gave up their Saturday morning to come into school to pack the boxes. Particular thanks to Abi and Dave Sayers who organised the purchase and delivery of all the food, in itself a major task given the quantities involved. We very much hope to do the same thing again next year and who knows? Maybe we'll be able to bless even more local families in 2023!

Food store - thank you! 

A huge thank you to St Richard's and St Thomas Aquinas Churches for your continued support with food and monetary donations for our food bank.
