Christian Aid Week 10th to 16th May 2020
We are living in extraordinary times and whilst we may not be able to meet in person, many or us are still meeting up with friends and family in the virtual world via zoom and facetime. Quizzes seem to have been a popular pastime during lockdown so why not do a virtual quiz with your friends and family to raise money for Christian Aid?
This Saturday (2nd May) Christian Aid are running a celebrity quiz at 7.30pm live on Facebook hosted by Rev. Kate Bottley. For more information go to

They are also providing resources so that groups can run their own quiz nights for friends and family or join one of their quizzes during Christian Aid Week. If you would like to join in please use the link below;

Or just give via the Christian Aid website, but if you are a UK tax payer don’t forget to Gift Aid it, that way they will get an extra 25% from the government. Unfortunately they aren’t receiving donations by post at the moment but you can donate by phoning

Coronavirus has impacted all of our lives. As this virus spreads across the world, generosity rises up in response. You’ve already shown incredible kindness to your neighbours. Now is the time to reach out to your neighbours both near and far. Show those in parts of the world your generosity this year by giving to Christian Aid. Help to protect them from storms, from drought, and now from coronavirus. Your generosity protects our global neighbours battling the spread of this illness. Your generosity protects. With soap, clean water and medical supplies. By supporting us this Christian Aid Week you can reach out and protect more of your neighbours today. For over 70 years, Christian Aid has been standing with the poorest of our neighbours, with people of all faiths and none, to stand up for dignity, equality and justice. Let’s stand together with our neighbours near and far.
