Christian Aid Week

26 March 2025 No Comment

This year the dates are Sunday 11 to Saturday 17 May. If you are a regular, we look forward to your help again. If not, we ask you to consider volunteering to deliver envelopes in Sudbury, or in the surrounding area. Please speak to your church Christian Aid rep, or send an email to Malcolm Snow via ctis.news@gmail.com . We are especially in need of people to cover parts of Great Cornard and Long Melford, and also the Taylor Wimpey and Greensleeves Avenue developments on the northeast edge of Sudbury.
