Open meeting to consider who does what in 2024

Sunday, 6. August 2023 - 12:15 to 13:00
Cheadle Hulme Quaker Meeting House

Following Meeting for Worship we will spend a little time reflecting on what jobs are needed to keep our meeting running and who might do them in 2024.

Cheadle Hulme Friends support the Chelwood Food Bank

The Foodbank based at Chelwood Baptist Church in Stockport (https://chelwoodfoodbankplus.org/) is supported by Churches Together in Cheadle Hulme by collections of food etc twice a week at local churches and financial contributions.  It is one of the projects Cheadle Hulme Meeting supports from our Quaker and Local Projects Fund.  We heard at our most recent business meeting that additional support is urgently needed because of increased demand for their services and so are encouraging Friends in our Meeting to consider supporting the Foodbank if they are able to.  Others in the area may be interested in helping too. 

Christian Aid week in Cheadle Hulme

As usual Cheadle Hulme Quakers have joined with members of other churches in Cheadle Hulme to deliver during Christian Aid Week (14 - 20 May) a Christian Aid collection envelope to every house in Cheadle Hulme.

We no longer call back to collect the envelopes (which was the part of the job that nobody enjoyed) but provide a number of collection points around Cheadle Hulme where people can drop off an envelope with cash contribution and also provide a website for online contributions. 

Last year Cheadle Hulme churches raised £11,045 for Christian Aid from this envelope collection and other activities.
