COVID: PRACTICAL ASSISTANCE
In these continued times of uncertainty and difficulty, we have set up, and are partnering with, various community initiatives to offer help and assistance.
Do have a read of them below.
St. John's Carrington Community Cafe
As part of our mission to serve the community we host and run a Community Cafe every Wednesday between 12pm and 2pm.
This is a really important way of reaching out to all in Carrington and addressing issues of loneliness and social isolation.
This is free and friendly and all are welcome.
