The international development charity has been running its 2023 Christmas Appeal and this year is shining a light on stories from a region of Bangladesh where young women are working to change their futures.

Supporters around the UK have been getting involved by taking part in carol concerts and holding collections.

Emsworth Christian Aid Group joined in with carol singing in Emsworth Square. Event organiser Gill Cooper said: “We are a group of people from the Emsworth churches who feel passionately about helping the most vulnerable people of the world. 
“The carol singing went well and we collected £183 on the day as well as having further donations since then, making a total of £235.”
