Gerry and Teresa Palmer would like to share a further update on their CAFOD Big Lent Walk.

Having recently gathered together all the offline donations—from sponsorship forms, cheques, and the parish digital collection—we have been truly touched by the generosity shown. An additional £395 has been added, bringing the total raised to £765.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who has contributed. Through your kindness, we have helped raise enough to provide clean water for a whole community—an inspiring reminder of what can be achieved together.

If there is any outstanding sponsorship still to come in, we would be very grateful if it could be passed on soon. The JustGiving page also remains open for anyone who may still wish to contribute.

With our sincere thanks and every blessing,
Gerry & Teresa Palmer
