SPACE IN THE CITY

WINCHESTER

New Year 2016

What we need to know about Syria but are too ashamed to ask

A series of three Wednesday lunchtime talks

including time for questions

on a topic many of us are only too aware we know too little about

at The United Church, Jewry Street, Winchester, on Wednesdays at 12.30 – 1.15pm.
Refreshments available.  No entrance charge, but your donations are most welcome.

Responding to crisis in Syria – keeping hope alive
Ray Hasan has worked for Christian Aid for many years with direct responsibility for a number of their programmes across Asia (in particular, India, Bangladesh and Myanmar).
