The Free Churches Group Moderator, Revd Dr Hugh Osgood, recently wrote to 110 university Vice-Chancellors in England and Wales to thank them for the important contribution universities make to society, and to offer support and prayers as they deal with the many challenges presented by the COVID-19 crisis.
A number of Vice-Chancellors have replied and expressed their gratitude for the support.
Hugh’s letter can be seen HERE.
If there is a university in your area, perhaps your church could think about writing in support of the work of all those who work and study there?
There may be ways in which you could offer practical help too. Our leaflets (see link here, in HE section) offer suggestions of ways in which you can support students, and we’ll be publishing more ideas about how you might offer help to universities soon.
