Organisations
 Befrienders
Part of our vision statement is that we aim
to "support our members......through the development of fellowship and the
Christian care of those in need." The Befrienders Group hope to further this aim
by visiting the those who find it difficult to get out and about but would enjoy
the companionship of someone from church.
