Beyond St Mary's

A team of volunteers help to ease some of the daily burdens for people in need of help and support.

As the name suggests, CARE is a good neighbour scheme which sets out to care for others. Volunteers might give lifts to people with mobility problems, carry out their grocery shopping or simply drop in for a chat.

Churches Together in Rickmansworth is a fellowship of Christian churches in the Rickmansworth area.

They aim to promote a fuller understanding across the different Christian traditions, unite over common interests and responsibilities, express their common faith whilst respecting different traditions and consider issues which affect the welfare of the community and take action where appropriate.

From time to time we help out at Mount Vernon Hospital, taking patients to the chapel on Sunday mornings.

This is organised by our Parish Secretary. Look out for requests for help in the pew sheet.
