In April 2026 we celebrate 100 years since the construction of St. Andrew’s church.
Remarkably, in 1926 the church and a new vicarage were funded totally by the parish, leaving it free of debt. A particular feature of the church is its leaded glazing and stained-glass images.
As part of the centenary, and to help preserve the legacy of St. Andrew’s, we’ll be looking to rejuvenate the church. The project will include painting all of the internal walls and floors, as well as cleaning and restoring the incredible stained-glass windows.
St. Andrew’s church is a Grade II listed building, meaning certain works must be carried out using qualified professionals with the requisite skillset.
We are looking to raise £30,000 to cover the cost of these works, and whilst a small portion of this can be covered by grants, we’ll be largely dependent on the generosity of local people and businesses.
If you would like to support St. Andrew's you can do so by any of the following methods. If you're ensure, you may contact Reverend Greville Thomas on the below contact details:

Gift Aid
If you are a UK taxpayer, we kindly ask that you complete an online Gift Aid Declation using the below link. This enables St. Andrew's to claim tax relief from HMRC, which adds a further 25 pence for every £1 you donate, at no further cost to yourself.
Thank you for your generosity
NB: All donations received will be held in a segregated account for the sole purpose of carrying out these works. Any donations over-and-above the required amount will be used for future maintenance and upkeep.
