Sunday 22 November: At the 9.30am service at St Peter, and the 11.15am service at St Margaret, we will be collecting toys for Reading Family Aid, who help children living with poverty and other disadvantages in the Reading area.

The charity has published a list of suggested gifts and has asked donors to consider gifts for the older children. Please also check the section at the bottom right of their list, listing some items that they do not want.

If you can’t get to these services, there are other donation points in Caversham and Reading. You can also give money online.

Please do not wrap the gifts.
