Repairs and maintenance

We are having to have a lot of work done on our building at present. We have discovered dry rot in the vestry and this will cost approximately £7000 to treat. We are also having our lighting repaired. In terms of maintenance, we are having a screen fixed to protect the Lady Chapel window, which will cost approximately £700. If you feel you can help with these works by giving an extra donation we would be very grateful.
