This extreme hot weather has meant we’ve sadly had to cancel a couple of things at the hub this week ☀️🥵
But the upside? We’ve had extra time to sort through last week’s AMAZING donations and thanks to your generosity, we are now in a brilliant position with baby clothes 👶🤍
We will absolutely continue to accept clothing donations while we build up some back stock, but right now we are especially short on items for mum and everyday baby consumables.
We are currently in need of:
🧴 Toiletries & toiletry bags
🪥 Single-pack toothbrushes & toothpaste
🧼 Shampoo & shower gel
🤱 Breast pads & maternity pads
💨 Deodorant & hand sanitiser
As well as: 🍼 Nappies (Size 1 only)
🧻 Wet wipes
🧴 Nappy cream
🛁 Baby wash
☁️ Cotton wool
If you’re able to pop an extra item or two into your usual weekly shop, we would be so incredibly grateful 🤍
Thank you for continuing to support local families when they need it most!

This brilliant article on supporting young people through exam season was written by our friend Josh Booth! Josh moved down to London for a gap year with XLP where he ended up staying for many years working with young people around inner-city London!

Youth development worker Josh Booth explores how youth leaders, parents and carers can support young people through exam season with a calm presence, honest conversations, prayer and practical care. A thoughtful reflection on pressure, identity and anxiety, and how to help young people feel seen and...

This Christian Aid Week, people around Melbourne will be fundraising through coffee mornings, stalls, breakfasts and this online giving page to support the vital work of Christian Aid.
Usually at this time of year you would receive a Christian Aid envelope through your door. We’re doing things a little differently this year, so if you don’t receive an envelope but would still like to donate, please do so using the link below. If you would prefer to use an envelope, you can still request one from any of the churches in Melbourne. Thank you for your support!

This Christian Aid Week (and a bit beyond too!) people in Melbourne will be fundraising to enable Christian Aid to continue their vital work. There will be coffee mornings, cake and plant stalls and a breakfast with toy and book stall. And this on line giving page too!All the money raised will help....
