Christian Community Ministries Charity Shop - Middlewich

Fiona Bruce MP calls for volunteers

Fiona Bruce MP has put out a call for volunteers to help run the new charity shop being run by Christian Community Ministries in Wheelock Street, Middlewich.

Fiona saidChristian Community Ministries is a charity which I have been involved with for about 20 years. Through the wonderful work of this charity, many children in Romania, Thailand, India and elsewhere have grown up being cared for, provided with homes, food, health provision, and education. It has always amazed how this charity makes relatively small sums of money, sent from the UK, go such a long way – for example – in Thailand in 2014, £3300 was sent to complete a boys’ home – with the installation of a kitchen, dining room, toilet and bathing facilities, a classroom and bedrooms for six boys. All of the boys who are living in the home have been able to help complete it – from plumbing and carpentry to painting and decorating – learning real skills on the way. This is just one of the many examples of the wonderful work of Christian Community Ministries which has had a charity shop in Barnton for very many years and is now seeking to ensure the future of one in Middlewich.”

Kay Carson, a trustee at CCM, pictured with Fiona says “We have plenty of lovely stock but we need volunteers to help man the shop in Wheelock Street.”
