IRT update from Uganda
IRT’s CEO and friend of our parish, Adrian Hatch, just returned from a two-week trip to Uganda where he visited IRT projects and talked to people to see how else we can help in the region.

UCM members pound the streets for charity
In a very weak moment, UCM members Geraldine Potter and Anne Monaghan agreed to pound the streets of London on 12th July as ‘Team Southampton’ to raise funds in support of the Apostleship of the Sea, and raised £1330!
