We had 28 visitors to the March clinic with some first timers, so a great success. There were a variety of maintenance problems. With 4 volunteers chatting and offering a warm drink it meant more time could be spent repairing broken aids and showing people how to use the Bluetooth setting on their mobile phones.Plenty of hardened ear wax removal going on as well. All very glamorous!
Each year, the Bishop’s Lent Call raises funds for local community projects in Southwark and our Link Dioceses in Zimbabwe and Jerusalem, as well as calling parishes to a time of prayer and contemplation.The Bishop's Lent Call for 2024 is raising funds for projects that focus on peace with justice in the Diocese of Jerusalem and the Middle East, and resilience and well-being across our Link Dioceses in Zimbabwe.As we spend time in prayer and contemplation this Lent, we hope that you will feel able to generously support the projects we have chosen this year.#stjohnscaterham #lentcall #southwarkdiocese
