About us
Midsummer Open Air Concert
A group of young people were inspired to spend a couple of weeks of their summer holiday in Moldova. Their mission was to help run holiday camps for children and support churches in the rural areas. Fundraising initiatives were considered and the decision was made to hold a concert so that the teams of young people could take a gift for the Moldovan churches.
Since 2008, there have been 10 concerts and more than £35,000 has been donated.
Christian Family Concern
Christian Family Concern works with all sections of Croydon's multicultural community, reaching out to the more disadvantaged and those needing additional support. Their Christian ethos is at the heart of everything they do.
Two houses of monitored bedsits aim to provide safe, secure, comfortable supported accommodation where young first-time mothers can develop their confidence and skills in parenting and independent living.
Mission Statement
"Christian Family Concern seeks to express the love of Christ in action. It provides services to help parents meet their children’s needs, to support the welfare of young people, and works with all sections of the community without discrimination."
