The Friends of All Saints. Registered Charity No. 1064496.
The Friends of All Saints is a group of people who may or may not be regular worshippers but who value the heritage of our Parish Church and wish to support the preservation of the building for future generations.
The group is constitutionally independent of the parish administration but exists to provide a source of long-term funding.
From its reserves it aims to help the Church Council:
When urgent and unforeseen repairs become necessary.
When work would otherwise be delayed due to lack of funds.
Grants to the PCC have been made in each year since 1999 totalling over £36,000 including installing the sound system, restoration of the chancel and Lady chapel, recasting a bell, replacing church heating and an outdoor lamp.
Minimum subscriptions:
ANNUAL:£7.50 per year.
LIFE: £100.00
LIFE for TWO: £150.00
