Parish Action

Parish Action’s focus is to raise parish awareness in social issues relating to health, justice, poverty, education and refuge both locally and globally by providing a platform for event ideas that support our nominated charities both financially and in partnership by promoting their work. 

Ordinary Time: Winter

We are raising money for Glassdoor.

                                 

Each Monday evening from January St Mary’s Church opens its doors to the homeless. Volunteers from both churches in our Parish provide a hot evening meal, a safe place to sleep and breakfast, whilst Glassdoor provides access to a Casework Service.

Please give generously to this wonderful charity, who partners with churches to provide support for the homeless throughout the year.

Thank you!

In Advent and Christmas we are thrilled to announce that we raised enough money to donate £1000 to Medair, an amazing charity that helps those most in need worldwide, providing shelter, clean water, medical services and directly assisting people… and donate another £1000 to help our linked diocese in Matabeleland, to help with new classrooms and school buses.

Thank you for all your generous support.

Selection of our partner organisations

Selection of our charities is made in consultation with the congregation via a parish-wide survey every three years.   Each chosen charity is assisted for a period of three consecutive years at which point they can tender for one further period of tenure alongside new suggestions. Charities where volunteering opportunities are possible are particularly encouraged because we are equally interested in our journey and community as well as the funds that we raise. We welcome the promotion of new charities within the parish and if anyone would like to propose a new charity that is close to their hearts, please do let us know.
