Others are living permanently in the developing world to make an impact in the lives of people.

Andy and Brenda Parkin left Clayton in 1989 to live and work in Lima, Peru. If you'd like to know more about the sort of thing they are doing have a look at their sponsoring organisation Latin Link
Andy and Brenda still own a home in Clayton and visit every two or three years to keep us up to date with the work they are doing.

In Summer 2006 a small team from Clayton went to Lima to work with Andy and Brenda and help in their work.

St Anthony's Church have a long term commitment to help provide water for communities in South America. They raise money to pay for wells, pumps and waste schemes in small communities. This makes a major impact on the health of the people in the villages they support.

Clayton people also give huge amounts of money to make an impact around the world. EVERY year Clayton gives more than £3000 in relief through the Christian Aid collection.

When major disasters strike people in Clayton are quick to respond, giving thousands of pounds through local churches, schools and pubs.

If you know about other people from Clayton who are making a difference around the world, please email us so we can include them on the site.
