Christian Aid Week 2026
Last year, our church supported Christian Aid again in May by holding a virtual Duck Race.
Also, the churches in Wilmslow and Handforth raised £8,869 and Wilmslow URC contibuted to that, £2,005.
This year your support could help mothers in Nairobi, Kenya, facing the devastating reality of urban poverty and daily struggle to feed their children.
Most parents wake every single day knowing that they must go and earn money, otherwise their children won’t eat that evening. Fridah knows this reality well. But she’s determined to protect her garndchildren from hunger.
Through Christian Aid’s partner, beacon of Hope, she’s received tools, seeds and tarining to grow fresh vegetables in a small city space – food she can cook for her family or sell to earn income.
As many of you know we are no longer able to do door to door collections for Christian Aid which was the major fundraising effort.
You can donate to by emailing our Treasurer treasurer@wilmslowurc.org.uk
