Kilpeck Restoration appeal update: Work commencing in May 2022

We are very fortunate to have received grant funding from Herefordshire Historic Churches Trust, The Benefact Trust, National Churches Trust, The Wolfson Foundation and Laslett’s charities.  We await the outcome of applications to several other foundations.  Grant funding alone will fall well short of the final cost so we are relying heavily on the generosity of donations.

“We are incredibly lucky to have such a gem of a church in our parish for the benefit of both the local community and visitors.  I feel hugely responsible for ensuring we maintain the condition of the building” said Hesketh Millais, the church warden.

Work starts on the church in the middle of May and is scheduled to last 10 weeks, from 16 May – 22 July 2022.  We will keep the church open for as long as possible during repair work but we may have to close temporarily when work on the inside starts.  All progress will be posted here where you can also make a donation which would be much appreciated.

 

Please may we ask you to consider donating as generously as you feel you can, so that we may preserve this very special church for generations to come.

You can donate either in the church, or online using the link below.

THANK YOU!
