Last week we were so lucky to meet a lovely group of women from Benbecula who are plunging into the sea every week for SCIAF, to raise money for the WEE BOX Appeal! Your commitment to the cold warmed our hearts! Thank you 💚

The Bishops Conference of Scotland back SCIAF's call to restore life-saving aid NOW! UK aid cuts are projected to hurt 55 million people globally, depriving them of access to basic services, like clean and safe water. It is a short-sighted decision that must be reversed.
