Culture Recovery Fund Announcement

 

    

We were thrilled to hear we have received Heritage Stimulus funding thanks to @dcms, @HistoricEngland, @CofE_ChurchCare and the government’s CultureRecoveryFund. You may not be able to visit us right now, but we are still HereForCulture and working towards reopening next year.

 

We are delighted to have been awarded a grant of £25,000 from the Covid-19 Emergency Heritage At Risk fund to mend a leak in the nave roof and one of £108,160 from the Major Works Fund (via the Church of England) to tackle serious water ingress problems from both above and below ground around the WCs, side entrance and historic chapter house.

 

Without this funding, there would have been no possibility of embarking on these essential projects, both of which will help secure the future of our wonderful building for the benefit of many generations to come.
