Help us support families with members
who have disabilities and special needs
During Lock down the Faith and Light organisation has ceased to exist at a national level. Here in Botwell we are hoping to begin a group to fill the gap that this has created. From January we intend to have a gathering once a month for teenagers and adults that have special needs and their carers. If you would be interested in helping with this group or know people that would be interested in participating, please leave your details in the parish office with Fr Paul or complete the following online form: https://forms.office.com/r/wvvgF6p3BY
