We will be working in conjunction with Freedom Ministries Church who work hard in the area all year round to meet the many needs of their community and the surrounding townships. As a church we are taking a team to a town called Harrismith in South Africa in April 2013.

In a country that has 16 million people with Aids, 5 million of which are children, Harrismith Centre runs a charity that works with orphans, children who have been abandoned or diagnosed with Aids. It takes a tremendous amount of money to feed and clothe these children, provide the medicines they require and ensure they have 24 hour care. We want to raise as much money as possible to help these projects, and others that the church runs, and to enable the team to get there.

As part of our fund raising initiative we are going to be holding a car rally on Saturday 3rd March across Kent! Teams need to sign up (sign up sheets will be available on Sundays) and register at a cost of £20 per team (you can spread the cost amongst your team members).

We will meet at Net Church, East Street, Sittingbourne at 2:00pm on the Saturday and the packs will be handed out containing the clues for you to find. All teams will then finally meet at Bredgar Scout Hall, Bexon Lane, Bredgar where the team will win who have the most answers correct and in the quickest time.

We will then have some food together and a bonfire!! If for any reason you can’t take part in the car rally but still want to come for the buffet and bonfire, simply give £5 on arrival at the scout hall per person (children under 10 eat free).

However, if you want to donate more on the day feel free, it is for a great cause. Food will be ready at 6:00pm and the bonfire lit at around 7:00pm.

See you there!
