Church Stonework & Repointing

Unfortunately, our large grant applications have not been successful, so we are re-thinking what we can do with the £23,505 we have available, and the next steps. . . .

We are exploring whether the church could be put on the heritage "at risk" register, an official acknowledgement that the church needs repairs so that it does not deteriorate.

All donations are still "gratefully received". There is still a need to prioritize the most urgent work. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your support . . .
