We will be supporting the Sunflower Fellowship Shoe Box Appeal this year for the children at Cataloi and the surrounding area.  Members of St Christopher’s have visited Cataloi in previous years and organised holidays there for children with special needs.

Many of us will receive more Christmas presents than we know what to do with this year, but many children and young people in Romania will have none.  Your help in providing a filled shoe box will make Christmas so much more special this year for a child you may never meet.  Please think carefully about gifts that would be most appropriate for the age group of the boy or girl.

For information about what to include in your shoebox, please see the  2019 Shoe box appeal.   Copies can also be found on the table in the entrance area of the Bridge at Church or by emailing office@saint-christophers.org.uk

If you would like to support the appeal, but you feel unable to fill a box, we would also be pleased with items to go in the boxes.    We are particularly needing toiletries, sweets (must be ‘use by date’ after March 2022) and items such as games, balls or skipping ropes.  There is a collection point these items in the Bridge at the Church.

Please note that filled shoe boxes need to be at St Christopher’s by Sunday 17 October at the very latest.
