As part of our care for creation, we are committed to reducing our carbon footprint and meeting the target of Net Zero Carbon Neutral by 2030.
To help achieve this we aim to replace the lighting in the Church with LED lights which are more efficient and cheaper to run.
We are part of the Give to Go Green Campaign whereby the Church of England will match fund donations up to a maximum of £10,000 during the Campaign.
Our Campaign will run from 6th October to 16th November and if you would like to give please follow the link below: -

We aim to raise £20,000, including matched funding, to help with the costs and every contribution is important and valued.
If you are able, please Gift Aid your donation. Whilst this is not eligible for the matched funding we will receive the Gift Aid on your donation from the Government at no additional cost to you.
