Could you help to stock the FSW foodbank?
It's time to start thinking about what we can donate to FSW for distribution to cover the Christmas period.
As well as traditional Christmas fayre, children's toys (new) and suitable gifts for teenagers will be welcome.
Collections will be made on Wednesdays 11th November and 9th December.
FSW continue to distribute non-perishable food to known families. Currently gifts are collected from church on the second Wednesday of each month. Please drop your offerings into church as near to that day as possible. We also welcome gift vouchers or financial donations that can be directed at supporting the families most in need and as usual, items can be left in the baskets in Church. For more information check the FSW website or contact Sue.
Plastic milk bottle tops - Chestnut Tree House Childrens Hospice
Please continue to save your plastic bottle tops from milk bottles. There is a collection bin in church. Our thanks go to Ron and Anne Leggett for generously giving their time and energy to deliver the tops to Chichester. It appears that along with Cowfold, we are one of the biggest contributors so please keep your collections coming in!
