BISHOPTON CHRISTIAN AID GROUP

Could you spare and hour or two of your time to help the Bishopton Christian Aid Group deliver some Christmas cards this year?
We are looking for some more volunteers to help particularly, but not only, in Erskine and Dargavel. Perhaps you could fit it in while walking the dog or taking children/grandchildren out for a walk and they could help. The more volunteers we have the less everyone has to do.
The cards will be delivered during the week commencing Monday 14th December.
If you can help or would like some more information, please contact Carolyn Macdonald at Church, Chit chat or by phone on 07971 537348.

Thank you!
