Watch Committee

WACH  Committee

Working All Together Caring & Helping through the Cross

 

The Watch Committee was set up be the Kirk Session in 1991 with a remit to support and raise awareness of local charities, and to include as well as church members, but also the local community.

Each year the committee members will put forward suggestions of a charity and after discussion a decision is made within the committee as to which charity we will support for the coming year.  Our decision is then referred to the Kirk Session for formal go ahead.

Our most recent Charity was HOPSCOTCH,  a childrens charity based in Silverknowes which provides respite holidays for children who are carers. They are then referred by to HOPSCOTCH by the social work department in order that care can be provided while the child has a much needed respite break.  

We were delighted to donate £10,000.00 in January 2024 to Hopscotch to support their amazing work.

Our charity for 2024..... watch this space!!!
