"I heard that the church`s Mother & Toddler Group were looking for donations" said Irene Yoong-Henery (pictured centre) "so I phoned them up and offered to donate a car load of toys for the church. I haven`t been before because I go to another church but I was impressed with the friendliness and warmth I received when I arrived. The volunteers at Christ Church do so much wonderful work for the community. I have a garage full of toys and I want to go back again with another load of donations".
The foundation stone of the church was laid in 1883 by the widow of Revd George Lea, vicar of St george`s Church in Edgbaston. The church was built between 1883 - 1885 and consecretaed on 30th April 1885. A parish was created under the church for Ladywood.
