Hi *|HTML:MMERGE4|*, here's your latest
CrossReach eNews Newsletter.

CrossReach is 150 years young!

150 years ago, in May 1869, a heart-felt desire to meet the social care needs of the people of Scotland led to the forging of what has become the Church of Scotland’s legacy of social care.

From that point and throughout the decades that followed, the Church of Scotland demonstrated a passion to make a real and lasting difference to individuals and communities throughout Scotland by its continued and uncompromising commitment to social care.

It's good to talk...
There's only limited space here to let you know of the transformations you and CrossReach, together, are making in Scotland, and the opportunities to do more.
We would love to come and talk to your Church, Guild or other group to let you know more about the exciting, life changing, differences being made, and how you can be part of it.
Phone us now on 0131 454 4374 or email supporters@crossreach.org.uk and let's agree a date to talk.
