Friends of St Michael’s Church - Financial Support

Whether you are a Parishioner, Villager or Friend of St. Michael’s Church, we, as Trustees, felt it important to update you on the ways in which we have used the funds raised to support the church building to date, what our plans are for the future, and to thank you for your continued contributions.

Recently we bought a new strimmer and funded the purchase of a small shed, to meet temporary storage needs.

In addition, we have offered to donate £1000 to go towards the partial cost of addressing a number of issues, identified in the last Quinquennial report*, some of which relate to Health and Safety and include:

Repairing / replacing the rotten fascia boards to which the guttering is fixed

Replacing netting and louvres in the church tower to prevent bird damage

Repairing and re-laying the Church path

Providing a handrail for the pulpit steps

Upgrading the ladder in the tower to enable safe access

Installing a new flagpole, which is safer to access

This work will be undertaken by professionals and will require extensive additional funding, both from donations and external grants, which the PCC is currently investigating.
