Weekly News th 25 August 2019 www.stpetersharrogate.org.uk St Peter’s Church, Cambridge Road, Harrogate, HG1 1PB Every year St Peter's Church gives at least £3,000 in donations to different charities – half of these are local and half are working overseas. This is the last article in this series, which features two smaller charities and the work that they do. St Andrew's Evangelical Mission was set up over 30 years ago by the Revd Brian Attwell and his Peruvian wife, Betty. After witnessing the poverty in the slums of Lima on a visit to Peru, the couple moved there and at first set up a soup kitchen. Eventually they raised enough money to establish an orphanage – the St Andrew's Children's Home in Chosica. Since Brian's death in 2010, Betty has continued to run the Home and currently they care for just over thirty abandoned, orphaned, and disabled children. They also run a day nursery, where mothers can bring their babies and toddlers while they go to work; and a clinic, where sick children and mothers are treated free of charge. The building of a school for the children is nearing completion. Contact the Parish Office if you would like to make a donation. Open Country is a Harrogate based charity which enables anyone with a disability to access the countryside, by providing advice, information and outdoor activities. Open Country provides a Countryside Advice Service to organisations like The Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority, carrying out access audits on pathways to check they meet recognised standards for wheelchair users and highlighting areas that need extra work. They have produced Breakfree Packs for the local area, containing walk descriptions and maps created with wheelchair users in mind. Open Country has a wide range of groups to suit nearly every ability and interest, from gentle bird watching trips to abseiling off viaducts!

St Peter’s Ladies who Lunch The Ladies who Lunch are meeting again on Wednesday 28th August at 12:30 pm at the Palm Court Café at the bottom of Montpellier Hill. If you are interested in joining us for food and fellowship, then please contact Sue Heapy to book your place at our table (07540 355 305) or brynsusie@hotmail.com. St Peter's Evening Fellowship: New Park and the Barber Line The streets of Harrogate were lit by gas lamps for the first time in February 1848. The coal for the Harrogate Gasworks in New Park was carried by horse and cart and from 1871 by steam road locomotives. The noisy, heavy vehicles damaged the roads, so in 1907, a narrow gauge railway was constructed. The first engine arrived in 1908 and was named 'Barber' after the chairman of the gas company. Coal was carried from Bilton sidings to New Park and hot bitumen was carried on the return journey. Find out more at the next meeting of St Peter's Evening Fellowship on Thursday 5th September starting at 7:30 pm, when Terry Williams will be the speaker. Fresh from the farm every week! FREE RANGE EGGS FOR SALE £1 for half a dozen Larger than large James Potter eggs available from Hannah Beck after any service on Sundays, or during the week. Ten pence from each sale goes to St Peter's Breakfast Club funds.
