Places of Welcome
Our Place of Welcome has begun!
We’ve had two sessions and it has been encouraging to have
a few people coming along. The second session saw some returning
from the previous week and some new faces.
So far, our visitors have preferred to sit and chat whilst enjoying their
refreshments. However, we do have boxed games, magazines, books,
crossword puzzles, and jigsaws available.
We will be meeting every Thursday throughout the year between
10am and midday, and it is open to everyone.
It is often difficult for someone to come along on their own, so if you know
of a friend or neighbour who would enjoy some company why not bring them along!
If you would like to know more, please ask.
Many thanks, Gill

ECO-CHURCH TIPS
This month back on the subject of food. This time PALM OIL.
In recent years people have realised how many foods, toiletries and
other items have palm oil in them. It never used to be this way.
In some tropical countries, vast areas of land and forest have been
erased and planted up with palm oil plants in order to keep up with
demand globally. This has had a devastating effect on the environment
and wildlife, especially orangutangs, forest elephants and Sumatran rhinos.
Humans have been affected too by land grabs, corruption, forced eviction
of indigenous people, forced labour, child labour and violation of human rights
on some plantations.
What can we do as individuals?
Well, when shopping look at the contents list on the packet. Some items don’t have
palm oil in them, some do, even the humble packet of biscuits. As consumers we can
make conscious decisions about what we buy.
- Even if you regularly purchased just one item without palm oil it would help.
- Or you could buy a product with sustainably sourced palm oil, as this is regulated more.
- Make your own foods/products using your own recipes. At least you know what’s in it!
