Many thanks also for your very kind donations to Mission Christmas. This year, a record number of children in the local area benefited from your generosity.

We will be studying Diwali – Festival of Lights, over the next few weeks. If you would like to come in to speak to the children about how you or your family celebrate Diwali, please let us know.
Macmillan Bake Sale and Pink Week
31st October 2016
Many thanks to everyone who recently supported our Macmillan bake sale where we raised a fantastic £65.29 for Macmillan Cancer Support. We received a lovely letter saying that our donation could pay for a Macmillan Grant that enables a person with cancer to purchase a microwave oven. This will make the preparation of food easier when they are experiencing fatigue and tiredness due to their gruelling treatment. Well done everyone!
