Community Outreach

We actively support a number of Outreach Programmes both at home and abroad, and allocate a percentage of our direct giving income to specific charities on an annual basis. We also have special collections as necessary to boost the aid available for crisis appeals, such as in the wake of natural disasters.

To learn more about these good causes, or if you feel you can assist these projects in any way, visit their websites below or contact the Rector.
