Supporting Others
We mentioned on our last update of the News Page, that we had been able to help out our friends at the 'Beauty of Grace' charity by supplying toys for them to send out to South Africa. We were able to add a further delivery of toys to their storage facility in Liverpool and they recently sent us photograph's of the toys being distributed. 'Beauty of Grace' International Ministries operate a 'Soup Kitchen' every Tuesday between 10.00 am - 2.00 pm. They feed between 150-200 people. |

On Wheels Appeal
This month sees the launch of our special appeal to help our friends at 'Just Care'. They are working with children in Kamutuuza, in Uganda and they have recently opened a children's medical centre. To get medical help out to the surrounding villages, they have come up with a great idea! We are partnering with them to supply bicycles that will be adapted to carry medical supplies. |
|
|
|
These bikes will cost £240.00 each and 'The Owl and the Pussycat' would like to raise enough money to buy five. Imagine the difference they could make to the health of children who live in that area. Maybe you could come up with some fund raising ideas?

OUR WORLD
We often take for granted the fact that we can turn on a tap and clean water comes from it, but how would we feel if we had to walk, collect and then carry it. How much water do we use in the UK, compared with people in other countries? |
|
|
|
For many children around the world, going to school would be something that they would long to do, but due to their family situation, they have to work. It is important to help our children understand the issues that children in other countries face everyday. |
