Fundraising for our annual Good Shepherd Appeal is an opportunity for children to learn about Catholic virtues, to witness how faith can be put into action, and to play a part in supporting Catholic social care in our Archdiocese.
Below, we have a range of fundraising resources to help you along the way.
Because they can’t visit schools as they usually would to give assemblies, our School and Parish Engagement Officers have recorded their presentations to help you learn about the appeal and the difference it can make. You can watch these on YouTube:
Birmingham, Caversham, Coventry, Oxfordshire, Solihull and Warwickshire - Watch Margot’s presentation on YouTube
The Black Country, Wolverhampton and Worcestershire - Watch Lucy’s presentation on YouTube
