Inspired by the hospitality of the traditional Scottish ceilidh (not the dancing type), we have been gathering in small groups in people's homes, over cheese and wine, or tea, coffee and cake - to discuss how we can stand up for the rights of others as we got about our daily lives. 

We’ve had some really encouraging feedback from the places we have toured so far: the Isle of Skye, Edinburgh, Stirling, South Queensferry and Inverness. The conversation has been different each night as people bring their own fascinating, inspiring and thought-provoking thoughts to the table – plus it has been a brilliant opportunity for me to get to know you all personally.

These gatherings allow people to connect and converse over community, faith and hospitality and we can’t wait to hold more.

It’s perfect for a church home group or social too. So if you would like to host a HomeTourgathering with your friends or home group, don’t hesitate to ask me – no distance is too far to come!

A HomeTour gathering is really simple to host. All you need to do is:

• Find a date when you can invite a few friends to your home
• Provide hospitality such as cheese and wine, or coffee and cake
• Ask me to come along and share some thoughts to start the conversation
• Encourage your friends to consider giving £10 each to the work of CSW.

Please email ruthdonaldson@csw.org.uk (Regional Development Coordinator, Scotland) or call 07880 668 068 if you have any questions.

We're looking forward to seeing you for an evening of conversation and company!
