Church Groups
The Church provides several groups from various committees at the church. If you wish to join any of the groups, please speak to the Duty Warden at the Sunday service.
Fundraising Committee (Friends of Leybourne Church)
Join the Friends of Leybourne Church from only £15 per year: Send an email to Lynne Selman
Since its’ formation in 2010 the “Friends” have raised over £60,000 towards Church improvements. The Church Fundraising Committee oversee its work. It is open to anyone – we have members who stay connected this way from all over the world/UK.
We have held a wide range of events appealing to differing audiences. These include: -
· Fireside Talks during the winter months
· a “Gin and It” evening in May
· Tribute band open-air concerts in July
· “Pimm's in the Orchard” in August
· Our ever-popular Christmas events – “Sparkle at the Castle” and black-tie dinners and quiz suppers, with carols and mulled wine around the tree outside, for starters.
· Songs of Praise services in the Church
· Catwalk shows/clothes sales
· … and much more.
Sadly Covid-19 has put all 2020 activities on hold (except for the fireside talks which were conducted over ZOOM). This has had a serious, adverse effect on fundraising income, as you will appreciate. So, membership/subs are even-more important during this difficult period.
