An ecumenical group, meeting on the first Tuesday of each month, at 7.30pm to 9.00pm in the Parish Centre. We support the Missionaries of Charity - mainly in Calcutta and other parts of India - by knitting and sewing clothes and blankets to send to those in need. Meetings are informal, and everyone is most welcome to come along and say a prayer, have a cup of tea or coffee and a good chat!

 Operation Christmas Child

The group co-ordinated the 2010 Shoe Box Appeal, in which your gifts of toiletries, toys and stationary are packed in shoeboxes, to be sent to a child in a disadvantaged situation. A total of 123 boxes were completed by the parish - thank you for your generosity.

In 2009, 140 boxes were completed by the parish

Pictured below are the 57 shoe-boxes completed by the Derby Tuesday Club for the 2008 appeal, being presented to the organisers of the Parish activity.
