This Christian Aid Week (14-20 May) our intrepid swimmers from St Mary's Church are taking on a personal challenge - please sponsor them to raise vital funds for Christian Aid...

Vernonne Allan will swim 1 mile 

Sarah-Jane Hingorani will swim 5 miles

The focus of this year's Christian Aid Week is to stand with farmers in Malawi like Esther, determined women who want to make their childrens' dreams come true and who will work to achieve great things.

By donating now, your gift could help people around the world secure a safer, happier future for their children and grandchildren, and send a powerful message that we believe poverty can be beaten.
