Ablewell Advice Aviva Bid
Ablewell
advice are often being asked how people can make donations.
Well here's how.
Please support their crowd funding bid through Aviva. They need
as many people as possible to make donations in the next couple
of days, as seeing support for the project is likely to encourage
Aviva employees to support them.
They are seeing unprecedented demand for money and debt
advice, despite the amazing team working all through
lockdown. They need more capacity to reduce our waiting time for
appointments and need to raise money to expand their team. Please
give as generously as you can. Every pound helps.

Resources for Holocaust Memorial Day Launch
Meeting
Join us at the online launch of our resources for
Holocaust Memorial Day 2021
We are excited to share our new resources to support communities
to mark Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD), even while socially
distant.
Join us online on 15 September from 4:00-5:30 PM as we share
exciting ways for individuals and organisations to get involved,
with Olivia Marks-Woldman, Chief Executive of Holocaust Memorial
Day Trust (HMDT), exploring the importance of marking the day.
Local HMD activity organisers from all over the country will hear
from Martin Stern MBE, survivor of the Holocaust, who will discuss
the theme for HMD 2021, Be
the light in the darkness.
The HMDT Outreach team will showcase brand new resources which
will enable groups of all kinds to mark HMD 2021, with a chance
for you to ask questions. With the world facing a global
pandemic, joining together in person isn’t always possible, but
our resources will give you ways to join together with others, to
learn from genocide – for a better future.
For more information about the event and to sign up, please visit
the Eventbrite
page. Please note that there is a limited number of places left,
so please book early to avoid disappointment, and cancel your
ticket if you are later unable to attend.
We look forward to sharing our new resources with you. If you
can’t make the event but still want to find out more about
marking HMD 2021, please feel free to get in touch.
Thank you for your continued support for HMD.
Kind regards,
Claudia

District
Children's Support Fund
The funding allocated
specifically to the support of children and families in the
District - particularly those experiencing some form of
deprivation - is still open to accept applications at the moment.
Are there projects you might consider which could offer
support even during the lockdown?
The
maximum amount of any claim is £500 and a Church can apply at any
time using the attached form
and send it electronically to Tim Lorimer who will process your
application and give a decision within six weeks of receipt. The
application will need the support of the hosting Church and
circuit superintendent. Church’s cannot apply for retrospective
funding.
We would hope that individuals and groups that have contributed
in the past to the Holiday Fund will still wish to do so knowing
that there money will still be used for Children’s Projects.
For more information please contact Tim Lorimer
on lorimertim@yahoo.co.uk
