In the meantime, the great news is that £200 was raised at the special Christmas lunch towards the £1300 in total raised over Christmas events in Upper Tweeddale - this will be split 50/50 between CrossReach (the Church of Scotland’s social care arm) and the Cyrenians who help the homeless in Scotland's cities. We would like to sincerely thank all our helpers for the lunch including Isobel, Katy, Sheila, Judy, Sarah, Paula, Alison, Nettie, Helen and Margaret. If you would be willing to join us as a volunteer to help out with soups, sandwiches, traybakes, serving and chatting, please contact Isobel on 860274 or by email. |
