How to Donate to or Follow News from Salvation Army Cheltenham

You can donate to Salvation Army Cheltenham's Christmas Appeal through its Just Giving page, and you can follow the church's latest news through its Facebook feed. Carol service details are announced on the site, and Sunday worship runs every week at 10.30am on Bath Road. These routes suit anyone who wants to give financially, keep up with church life, or join seasonal events — no membership or religious background is required to take part.

Donating to the Christmas Appeal

The church's Christmas Appeal 2026 has launched, and the site directs financial donations to its Just Giving page. The page states that every small donation goes a long way.

• What to expect: an external Just Giving page handles the donation. The site does not list suggested amounts, processing fees, or Gift Aid details, so check those on the Just Giving page itself before confirming.
• Before you give: confirm the appeal is still open, since the site refers to the 2026 appeal and campaign pages can close or roll over.
• If you prefer not to give online: the site does not publish alternative giving methods such as bank transfer or cash collection, so contact the church directly if you need one.

Following News and Updates

The church shares its latest news through a Facebook feed embedded on its website. The feed only appears once you accept cookies, so if you see a blank space where news should be, cookie consent is the usual cause.

• On the website: accept cookies to load the Facebook feed.
• Directly: search for the church on Facebook if you would rather follow without changing cookie settings.
• What you'll find: the site describes the feed as the place for latest news; it does not promise a fixed posting schedule.

Christmas Carol Services

The site invites visitors to "join us for one of our carol services this year" and lists Carol Services as a Christmas activity. Specific dates, times, and venues are not given in the available page content.

• To plan: check the site's Christmas section and the Facebook feed closer to December, or contact the church, since carol service details are typically confirmed in the weeks before Christmas.
• Suitability: the invitation is open — the church's stated position is that it doesn't matter what your background is or what you believe.

Attending Sunday Worship

Sunday worship is at 10.30am every Sunday at the church on Bath Road, Cheltenham. The gathering includes sung worship, prayer, and Bible teaching described as relevant to everyday life, plus a creche, Kids Church, and Youth Group.

This is useful context if you are visiting for the first time or bringing children: the site explicitly says everybody is equally welcome and valued, whatever their background or beliefs.

Who Leads the Church

The church leaders are Rachel and Tom Dunham, appointed to Cheltenham in July 2024. This is worth knowing if you want to address correspondence or ask who to contact about donations, events, or prayer requests.

Other Ways to Get in Touch

• Prayer requests: the site invites confidential prayer requests for its prayer team, sent to the address shown as @prayer on the page. Copy the full address from the site rather than guessing it.
• General enquiries: the site does not list a phone number or general email in the available content, so use the contact details published on the site or message the church through Facebook.
