Fundraising 2024 – The Clock Face Restoration

/in /by

 

A very big THANK YOU!

We are very pleased to report that the restoration of the three faces of our historic tower clock is now complete.

This would not have been possible without the extraordinary generosity of members of the congregation and local residents.

We are indebted to both the Sir John Priestman Trust and the Benefact Trust who also provided grants towards the costs.

For more information please refer to our clock face restoration page of our website.

Thanks are of course due to everyone involved in the project but most of all thanks to all of you who contributed so generously.
