Why your support matters
Your annual £25 individual or £45 joint membership will add your voice to our growing number of supporters and will add weight to our application for grants, which since 2000, has made possible three phases of significant restoration.
The church is now safe but there is much to do to enhance certain elements, which include significant external and internal features as well as the more mundane including providing disabled access toilets and creating a new servery at the back of the church to provide refreshments.
Friends of St Giles’ – Registered Charity 295291
We are currently embarking on a £500,000 restoration project for the Organ, without which the musical legacy of the Church would be in jeopardy.
We want to make the church more accessible, providing better disabled access and improved toilets.
Proper catering facilities so we can put on more events.
Restoration of the clock, font, west doors and stonework repairs.
As a charity we can also collect Gift Aid so your annual membership of £25 would be worth an extra 25%. Please let us know if you are a UK tax payer so we can claim the Gift Aid.
