For two weeks every summer the mission team put on events for all ages on the beaches and around the village of Abersoch. Activities are open to anyone and almost all are free of charge; (it will say clearly if there is a charge for a specific event). You are welcome to join us for just one event or come to everything we run over the whole two weeks! This year’s events begin on Sunday 31st July and run through to Friday 12th August 2011 (excluding Saturday 6th)

Abersoch Holiday Mission is part of the work of Scripture Union, a Christian organisation making Jesus known and helping people of all ages to meet God through the Bible. You can find out more about their work here. It does this all over the world.

All the team in Abersoch are volunteers, from a mix of churches around the UK. All team members have been CRB cleared.

Mission leaders are Helen Franklin, Barry Hayes, Eddie and Hannah Scrase-Field.

Barry first encountered the mission as a 12 year old, and has been involved ever since. He lives in Derbyshire and is assistant manager at a large conference centre. He’s a bit of a Formula 1 fan too!

Hannah first came on the Abersoch Mission team whilst training as a physiotherapist, and then brought Eddie, now her husband. Hannah and Eddie have two young sons, and have just moved to Cheadle, where Eddie is now assistant minister at the parish church. Let’s hope they’ve had time to unpack their buckets and spades...

Helen has been on the mission team all her working life, and missed it enormously last year when a slow recovery from an operation kept her at home. Helen heads up Scripture Union’s work in the Midlands, but is here on the mission team as a volunteer, just like everyone else.
