Church Roof Works Start!

We want to say a massive THANK YOU for your truly amazing donations to repair our church roof - your generosity means everything to us and to the community we serve.

Together with community fundraising, we are grateful to have received grants from Gatwick Community Airport Trust, Marshalls Charity and the Benefact Trust.

We are pleased to share that we have now raised £40,000 which enables us to commence the much-needed work on the south section of the roof as well as the bell tower over the summer period.

As part of this, scaffolding has just been erected on the south side and around the bell tower.

As the south aisle and bell tower were the worst effected, we are hopeful that all being well the work will be completed to allow the church to remain dry over the winter. Fundraising for the north roof will continue over the next 12 months to hopefully allow this section to be completed next summer.

Thank you for being a part of St John’s community!
