Refugee Support
Supporting our Ukranian Friends
Like many churches, St Andrew’s and St Cuthman’s decided last year to set up a fund to support refugees fleeing the war in Ukraine. Crucial to this were the generous offers of accommodation from some of our congregation, as well as the financial support which enabled us to build up a five-figure sum. We have been truly humbled by the resilience and faith shown by the families we have helped so far. Not least, they have enhanced our own church family and enabled us to resume children’s worship. We now have two families who have found their own houses and jobs enabling them to support themselves with the help of the local authorities. And as some find their independence, we welcome others.
