Some other websites you may like to visit are listed below.
There are sites to help you find out more about the Church and Christianity, Christian news, events, festivals and bookshops. Then there is a group of Christian and humanitarian organisations providing disaster and medical support around the world. Thirdly, there are organisations that aim to lift people out of poverty by simple and practical means and those who work in this country and abroad helping those in need, whether children, the poor, the homeless, the abused and all on the margins of society. Then organisations that offer Fair Trade products and those who offer ways of giving presents that are less materialistic.
Many charities need volunteers for a range of tasks, some needing specific skills and training and others which are more generalised.
