The Caritas St Joseph’s Penny appeal

For over 100 years, young people have collected their pennies and loose change during Lent to raise funds for children in families less fortunate than themselves.  Old and young, if you’d like to do the same at any time of the year, we will bring your coins back into circulation for a good cause.
