The early months of 2020 showed a continuation of the high levels of activity recorded in the previous year and it was with great
regret that the coronavirus related lockdown required the closure of the ground floor Christian Centre and the Bookshop. It is good
however to report that the regular blood donation sessions continued throughout the year and that the First Steps Nursery and One
Way UK were able to remain in occupation with business as usual. First floor activities were largely unaffected, the Trustees were
pleased to assist the newly formed Grimsby Shoeboxes, who have succeeded Operation Christian Child with their highly valued
work involving the preparation and distribution of shoeboxes to needy children and families throughout the world. During the
pre-Christmas period of 2020 a total of 4,333 shoeboxes were filled and dispatched.
