CAMEO
Come and Meet Each Other - C.A.M.E.O.
This is a monthly daytime meeting for social fellowship with a speaker from everyday walk of life or someone with a life changing experience to share with those who gather.
Meetings take place on the third Tuesday of each month as shown in the following programme. Starting at 1:30pm each time, with refreshments at the start and at the end of the afternoon and we usually finish around 3:15pm.
The meeting is open to all who are available to attend and your presence in our midst will be very welcome. Each time we meet, friends are encouraged to donate at least 50p for the pleasure of meeting in our lovely building, at the end of the year this is donated to a worthy cause. To date over £3,500 has been sent to organisations who support local and overseas causes, the latest being Ifakara Bakery Project Tanzania who recently received £230.
