A warm welcome from St Aiden’s Church

Published on: March 23, 2026

Good News Story from SAVS Community Builder, Eda Deramchia

This month I popped into St Aiden’s Church in Leigh, where they host a warm and welcoming coffee morning every Friday.  It’s a lovely space where people come together, share conversations, make memories, and build friendships.

The community spirit is incredible — some of the group have even been making small bunches of flowers to gift to mums for Mothering Sunday. Such a thoughtful gesture that truly reflects the heart of this community.

A huge shoutout to St Aiden’s Church and all the amazing volunteers.
Great things really do come from small, daily acts of kindness!
