Although we have been in lockdown and closed for worship and activities, like most other churches in the country, we have been busy in the background. Our fundraising still continued, and plans were developed with Architect Russell Trudgen of Arctic Associates to start on our refurbishment project. Touchstone Glazing were appointed to install the new double glazed windows encapsulating a stain glassed window. The installations (in spite of all the supply chain issues) were completed on schedule and finished on 30th October. Our thanks to their MD Liz Taylor and fitters Richard, Matthew & Ryan Our profound thanks to FCC Foundation for their grant towards the cost of the windows.
