Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page. I am the Vicar at St Matthew with Holy Trinity Church Burnley, serving a large and vibrant community in South West Burnley. On Friday, 11 September 2026, from 10:30 am to 4:30 pm, I will be dedicating six hours to a Litter Pick event to care for our beautiful parish and raise funds for our church's ministry.

Our parish is blessed with natural beauty, but sadly, litter threatens to tarnish this precious environment. This challenge is driven by a deep love for our community and a commitment to protect the spaces we cherish. By supporting this cause, you help us maintain not only the cleanliness of our surroundings but also the vital work of St Matthew with Holy Trinity Church.

I invite you to join me for all or part of this six-hour Litter Pick or consider sponsoring me as I take on this challenge. Every donation brings us closer to our target of £1,000 and supports the ongoing mission of our church. Together, we can inspire others to care for our environment and encourage responsible disposal of litter. Your sponsorship will be the completion of this marathon. If you do want to join Alex for the challenge or just some of it, maybe you could set up some individual sponsorship to help us reach our goal.

If you are able to contribute or participate, it would mean the world to us. If times are tough, please know your support in any form is deeply appreciated. Let’s come together as a community to make a lasting difference—one piece of litter at a time.

Thanks for reading, and thanks for contributing if you are able.

Much love

Fr Alex
