This Sunday, we were pleased to welcome Philippa Buckingham, a local representative for Barnardo’s, who gave a 20-minute talk about the history of Barnardo’s Children’s Homes and the kind of support they continue to give to children from a variety of backgrounds, enabling them to reach their full potential. Barnardo’s ‘Bennachie BHG’ is our chosen local charity this year (our church alternatives each year between overseas and local charities), We give a proportion of our total income, plus three special collections throughout the year to a selected charity.
