Amazing news for CP Worker Rachel and her youth group, Hatfield Heroes at Hatfield St. Lawrence Church, as they have been awarded £5000 from the Co-Op Winners Share It All prize draw.
The team have been working really hard behind the scenes to pull together statistics from each of our CP workers. We ask our workers to submit stats every quarter so we can celebrate their amazing work.
While numbers definitely do not measure a lot of what we do we are sure you will agree there are some incredible stats. We’ll be sharing more over the coming days.
Evie has been an Intern with us since September, on placement with Lydia at St.Thomas church in Kilnhurst, and helping to run our Rotherham/Sheffield Youth Hub, now she is a term in we asked her to share some of what she has been to to so far. sheffield.anglican.org/cente…
