Caterham

Help us reach children in Caterham and surrounding districts who will not have presents to open on Christmas morning? Or enough food over Christmas and the holidays?

Many more families are struggling this Christmas as a result of the energy and cost of living increases and we need your help with toys, Amazon vouchers, store cupboard foods, financial donations and hygiene products. Please join with us to give some festive cheer to others!   

You can donate via our Community Just Giving Page https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/caterham-corps-the-salvation-army  or make cheque donations, payable to Caterham Salvation Army, marked Christmas Present Appeal on the envelope. 

When you have purchased your toys / food gifts, please call Ailsa on 01883 330718 to check a time when there is someone available to receive your gifts and bring them to 92 Banstead Road, Caterham, Surrey, CR3 5QE. 

If you, family members or friends are struggling and would like help over Christmas, please call Ailsa to explore what we can do together to ease the struggle.

Many blessings,

Ailsa Flinders.

Church Minister Caterham Salvation Army Church.   

Caterham Salvation Army Church assists a growing number of individuals and families across Caterham and District as the cost of living increases affect them, on top of the struggles during COVID19. People need us now more than ever.
 
We provide opportunities to talk through issues, to seek prayer and spiritual support. Practical support is offered through our resources as well as through working together with local organizations such as Caterham Food and Fuel bank, The Westway Centre, Citizens Advice, The Hygiene Bank, Caterham Rotary Club and others to provide help with issues such as debt, benefit applications, fuel and food poverty, relationship issues and much more.

All of this is possible through the generosity of people like yourself. Do help us to be here for others by making a donation on our Just giving Page Caterham JustGiving page or drop a cheque (made payable to Caterham Salvation Army) off at 92 Banstead Road, Caterham, CR3 5QE.  

Many thanks for your generosity and prayer support.
