WORK NEEDED
The interior is fine but St
George's building needs a lot of work to the
external fabric. The recent architect's report specifically points out the
need to re-point the whole of the outside of the Church, replace the gutters
and carry out other repairs before the next inspection in five year's time.
It is envisaged that the total cost of these repairs could be
as much as £250,000.
DEVELOPMENT GROUP
We have formed a St George's Church Development Group whose job it will
be to apply for grants and raise money for a Development Fund. The fund has
recently been kicked off with a generous donation of $1,000 from a former
member of St George's now living in the USA. It is envisaged that there
will be a number of fundraising activities with different people taking
responsibility to coordinate them.

IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT BRICKS AND
MONEY!
St George's has served
its local community since 1840 and we want to continue to do so in the
future. In 1976 the Church was adapted to create rooms for community use. The
Development Group will be looking at how to extend our use of the building,
especially in the daytime.
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
We are
preparing a 'Statement of Need' using data collected to establish the kind of
facitlites and activities that are needed in the area so that we can offer a
long term sustainable community service.
