Songs of Praise: Love Thy Neighbour

Series 244, episode 0

Aled Jones explores one of Jesus's best-known teachings, Love Thy Neighbour, and discovers how it is being put into action on the Isle of Sheppey in Kent. Aled meets local historians to discover Sheppey's hidden heritage. The island is the cradle of British aviation, with the first aeroplane manufacturers in the world, Short Brothers, setting up a factory there in 1909. It also has a rich maritime history, having maintained a dockyard for over 300 years. Students from the local high school get Aled involved in their award-winning dementia cafe, where residents of local care homes are invited for tea, entertainment and conversation, organised and performed by the teenagers. The Rev Cindy Kent tells Aled about moving to the island and working to build the great sense of community there. She also reflects on her pop star past as the lead singer of the group The Settlers. JB Gill visits Sheerness Youth Club, where one youth worker has been serving the young people for nearly 60 years
