​Electoral Roll - This year sees a full revision of our Electoral Roll. This means everyone needs to formally sign-up again. An email will be going out with an online form to complete. If you are able, this is the best and quickest way to register. If you prefer, there are also paper forms at the back of both churches. We will put return boxes out for those to go in, or please hand to Alison or Caroline. Being on the Electoral Roll is an important part of being a member of our churches so we really encourage you to join.

​​​Horsham Matters Food Bank - The food bank started 2022 by providing food for 347 people and ended it by feeding 1,466 adults and children in December – an illustration of how tough things have got for many. January 2023 has continued in the same vein with 788 people needing support with food. More and more of those needing help are working people, finding their salaries no longer cover both bills and food, and our support in household budgeting, debt advice and benefits checks is proving a valuable service to those now in crisis.
 

If you can spare an item or two, the foodbank is currently short of:

Toilet roll, long-life custard, hot chocolate, jar cooking sauces, long-life fruit juice, instant coffee, savoury snacks. NOT currently needed are: pasta, baked beans, cereal or tea.

OUR DONATIONS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER.
