Boys’ Brigade
March 29, 2022
Volunteers urgently required!
BB is in desperate need of new leaders this session! We are looking for people to volunteer a skill, etc., first aid, golf etc, and show and teach the boys that skill in 3/4-week blocks. This way we feel volunteering wouldn’t be as big a commitment!
If you’re interested or willing to volunteer on a Thursday evening for the 2022 session, please email Sean – office@tpc.org.uk
Thanks again and hope to hear from you soon! Sean Reilly.

Girls’ Brigade Refuweegee Appeal – Thank you!
October 6, 2021
The girls had a great time on Wednesday filling welcome bags for Refuweegee to distribute to newly arrived refugees. In the end there were 52 filled bags which was far more than we expected to fill! This is testament to the generosity of all who donated so many items for the bags and the GB leaders would like to thank you all very much for your support with this project.

Crossover
September 10, 2021
TPC are in the process of setting up a drop-in youth café to give the young people of the village somewhere safe, warm, and fun to come along to. It is due to launch on Saturday 18th September and is aimed at those in P7 to S3/4.
We are looking for some supplies and wondered if anyone in the congregation would be able to assist with any of these that you’re not using and haven’t got around to throwing out yet:
Old video game consoles, games, and peripheries
A smoothie maker / blender
Arts and crafts materials or supplies
Wooden tabletop games (e.g., Jenga, chess, draughts, go etc)
Message Iain Nisbet at office@tpc.org.uk if you’ve got anything you think might fit the bill. Thanks!
Volunteers for BB and Crossover
August 27, 2021
Our Boys’ Brigade and Crossover groups would each be grateful of new volunteers as they plan to restart their valuable work in the new term. This could mean anything from helping with a specific skill, joining a rota to help every few weeks, to supporting the leaders on a weekly / bi-weekly basis. Please would you commit this to prayer, and consider whether God may be calling you, or someone you know, to volunteer? Involvement is as rewarding for the leaders and helpers as it is for the young people who attend. If you would like to help with a specific group, please speak to any of the existing leaders or drop us an email. If you are open to helping with any group or are unsure where you could be of most help, please email the office and we will be happy to explore the options with you. office@tpc.org.uk
