Senior Badge Bag Lay out:
Our Seniors recently raised money for Twinning Toilets to build 4 new toilets for countires in Africa, especilly for girls and young woman to access to help with their health and hygine needs.
This was part of their Service Badge but also connected to the Eco Church Project. The Seniors organsied a sale of "pre loved clothes" helping us to think about reusing and recyling items we might throw away.
Pictures of the toilets built from the Seniors efforts are proudly displayed on the toilet doors at Trinity Church, reminding just how much we take the some of the basic every day necessities for granted.
Seniors love "chillin" with their friends, playing board games, cooking and being active. They are led by Allison and Louise.
Uniform: They wear;
We encourage them to tie back long hair for cooking or other messy activities and wear trainers for sports or physical activties.
