Slough and Eton School host a wonderful Christmas Party for Senior Citizens.
It is free, but you must register in advance. Fr Scott will pass on names by 30th November

We really need some volunteer helpers at Start the Week on Monday morning. We are aiming for a rota rather than every week.
Please see Jean Smith for details.  It is an opportunity to have coffee and chat.

Many of the parents who join us are new to the town and often have no family support.
They welcome the chance to meet other parents and for their children to play in a big space.

All adults welcome if accompanied by a child.

For more information if you need this service   –   NACCC entry   

Good news, we received a grant from Ministry of Justice via NACCC which will take us up to early March 2026.

The Child Contact Centre has been running since 2006 and with other local centres closing there is a strong demand for places.   

Volunteers and suggestions for sponsorship are always welcome.   Click for more information and contact details. 

Child Contact Centre (CCC) – on 14 March the volunteers and board members gathered together after the day’s session to celebrate 20 years of the centre at St Mary’s, Slough. Two founder members, Jean and Joyce, were present.
Post covid the Slough centre has provided a venue for 90 families of 143 children with sessions 2nd and 4th Saturday in the month from 2pm to 4pm.
Two local centres have closed down so more families are seeking help from St Mary’s so that non resident parents can see their children in a safe environment.
The team are eager to continue to provide the service and would welcome more volunteers for the sessions and the board.
Please contact Jean for more information. Telephone: 07726 324589 Email: [email protected]
