1/ SHOUT Helps those who are really struggling to feed their families and the homeless. If you can spare an extra item from your shopping, please donate it to SHOUT Worthing – Soup Kitchen. There are boxes for food donations at the church entrances of St Mary’s. Holy Family also support a similar charity http://www.worthingsoupkitchen.co.uk
SHOUT have opened a new charity shop at 147 Montague Street, Worthing, supporting the most vulnerable in our community.
2/ LIVE SIMPLY Tip of the Week East less red meat & replace with a plant-based meal at least once a week, if everyone did this it would save the county 8% carbon
3/ From CAFOD over 17,000 children have been killed in Gaza. Famine is closing in. Hospitals lie in ruins. And life-saving aid is stuck at the border.
This is not just a humanitarian crisis – it’s the systematic erosion of what makes us human.
The UK government is right to condemn Israel’s current actions in Gaza and suspend trade negotiations with Israel. But this is far too little.
Please tell your MP that the UK government must take bolder and more decisive action https://cafod.org.uk/campaign/latest-campaigns
