United Benefice Summer Challenge

Our children are embracing this Summer holiday challenge with amazing energy and enthusiasm. The range and difficulty of the challenges the children have set themselves has been incredible! Each one of them is doing this individually but aware that they are part of the United Benefice team who are working together to raise much needed money for the Asylum and Refugee centre in Blackburn. A video showing all the children will be shared in our schools and churches in September and a link will be attached to the September United Benefice magazine- hopefully you will all be able to see it! Please consider showing your support by making a donation to the Asylum and Refugee centre using the easy instructions on the Summer Challenge activity sheet. Together we can make a huge difference!
