Diss Baptist Church winter giveaway hailed success as dozens turn out
Diss Baptist Church hosted a popular winter clothing giveaway for those in need at the weekend.
The church in Denmark Street was open between 10am and midday on Saturday, with dozens of people stopping by to stock up on warm clothing and to have a chat.
“We had a wonderful response this time to our winter clothing giveaway at Diss Baptist Church,” said one of the event organisers, Maureen Baker.
“People began to come in soon after 9.30am. From then on, we had a great many people willing to make use of our donations and enjoy the refreshments with hot or cold drinks.
“It was good to meet other members of our community and, as our poster said, to share God’s love with our community.
“The remaining clothing is being given to the Salvation Army in Diss to help members of our community who they are in touch with.”
