Our Voice Residential 2021 24th – 26th September 2021 at the Chellington Centre

Dear Parent,

Our Voice Youth Group was born out of Deanery who wanted to offer an opportunity for the young people in its churches to gather together, to have fun together and to discuss their thoughts about church and faith. Sharnbrook Deanery represents the Anglican churches in the villages of north . The group launched in April 2019 and travelled to different churches around the Deanery, meeting many young people and having many discussions along the way.

During that time, members of the Our Voice Steering Group enjoyed getting to know your wonderful young people. After a long hiatus due to Covid, we are relaunching Our Voice and hope over the coming months to re-establish relationships with your young people. To enable that Our Voice are holding a weekend residential trip at the Chellington Centre! It will take place from Friday 24th September to Sunday 26th September. The age range for the trip is school Year 7 to Year 12. The total cost of the trip is £50 (including food and drink).

The purpose of the weekend is to have fun, do some team-building, to worship together and to begin to move the group forward once again. We are putting together a fun programme of activities, and are looking forward to having a great time together! Spaces are limited so if your young person would like to attend please book early to reserve their space!
