1st Tewkesbury Craft Activity Packs
Wednesday 12th August 2020Leaders at 1st Tewkesbury provided each of their Anchors and Juniors with a craft activity pack during lockdown, with donations funding the cost of the packs. Over 40 packs were put together and delivered by the leaders to members’ homes, giving them the opportunity to engage with the children and parents/carers. The initiative was really appreciated and generated a very positive response.
Some weeks later the leaders decided to put together the same packs for children of families in the local community who might be struggling financially. Using the Company’s minibus, over 120 packs were put together and distributed via the Tewkesbury Community Response Group, an initiative overseen by their own Church. These packs were funded by donations from parents/ carers as a result of the first set of packs, raising over £600 and also enabling the Company to provide packs to GB members in their local group as well.
