Save the Children Stall and Christian Aid Week

Christian Aid Week
On the Market Place on Saturday was the Save the Children Stall.

It is also Christian Aid week and there was also a Christian Aid stall. They were asking people to write on a clothes line what they felt they would most need if they arrived in a foreign country as a refugee.

It is 60 years since the first ever such week, and there are still a band of people delivering and collecting Christian Aid envelopes, door to door – not as many as there used to be.

On the Christian Aid website, I see that Emily, aged eight, from Abingon Baptist Church, designed her own Christian Aid envelope and helped do the door to door collection.

    And this Saturday (May 20th) the local NSPCC group are having a table-top sale of plants, books and miscellany plus a tombola on the market place from 10am.
