The Warner Bequest grant application was submitted hot on the heals of a competitive tender process managed by the Church Architect.

The award of £3,000 puts the total so far committed to just over 20% of the total net cost.

Hopefully we will have received sufficient grants and committed funds to decide (probably in July or August) to proceed this year.

Due to at least 6 species the bats in the church, the work can only be done in late summer / early autumn.

Our bat specialist will be dealing with a bat survey in the summer, and then getting the license so work can progress.
