  • About us

    Midsummer Open Air Concert

     

    In 2009 the first team of young people from Emmanuel set off for Moldova to help run a summer camp for children in two remote villages. They took with them a gift of money for the churches which had been donated at the first Open Air Concert. Since then there have been 12 concerts which have raised many thousands of pounds for mission projects in Moldova, France and Croydon.

     

     

    This year, the focus will be on

    INTERNATIONAL NEEDS

    International Needs is a worldwide development agency working to help families suffering through poverty and crises to create a sustainable future. It seeks to serve God and bring people the good news of Jesus.

    Since 2015, terrorist attacks and civil unrest in Burkina Faso has displaced nearly 2 million people from their homes – more than half of them children.

     

    Many have experienced extreme violence firsthand,

    Some have seen family members killed or injured in the conflict.

     

    Can you help provide trauma care to these young survivors of conflict?

    Toilets?

    Yes, these are in the corner of the garden opposite the stage.

    What is the money going to be used for?

    The money donated at the concert will be used to provide trauma care for survivors of violence. Specialist councillors and mental health professionals need to be recruited to heal the emotional scars of terrorism and civil unrest.
