Activities within Kenilworth

Kenilworth Youth for Christ (KYFC) is a cross denominational organisation working with young people in schools, churches and on the streets of Kenilworth. KYFC has an office base in the Methodist Church, which serves as a postal address and resource centre. Tom Millington is the permenant director of Kenilworth Youth for Christ.

Churches Together in Kenilworth and District (CTK) exist to help unite Christians of all denominations in Kenilworth in acts of worship, fellowship and witness within the town.

Kenilworth is aiming to be designated a Fairtrade town. At KMC we use Fairtrade products where available and encourage our congregation to do the same and to support trade justice campaigns so that producers everywhere can receive a fair and stable price for their work.

Climate Change is an issue that potentially affects us all and will impact the most disadvantaged people of the world most. As Christians it is important that we act in a way that values God's created world and support those least able to help themselves. KMC supports the work of Kenilworth Initiative for Climate Change.

Community Information Fair: essential information made accessible under one roof. KMC first brought together all the service providers in the town on Wed April 5th 2006 and has continued to do so each year since, the most recent being Sat May 9^th at St. Francis Church Hall.

Kenilworth Community Care Limited Churches in Kenilworth played a large part in the original formation of KCC which aims to support those most in need of caare in our community, particularly the elderly, the frail and the handicapped. Its main focus now is in running the Waverley Road Day Centre (in Waverley Road) which provides transport, meals and other services to many people recommended by the Social Services Dept. of Warwickshire County Council and a few others. Many other groups use the Centre and its fleet of specially adapted minibuses and it is supported by many of the charitable groups in the town.
