Water Company Policy – Please sign electronic petition in order to save us money!
The Water Companies are ignoring churches charitable status and starting to charge Churches for the amount of area (i.e. roofs and car parks) that will collect rainwater and discharge it into the sewer network. This will effectively raise most churches water bills by hundreds if not thousands of pounds. There is an online government petition that you can register on which, apparently, needs at least 15,000 to be noticed!

Many thanks to all who supported our beautiful liturgy and fun BBQ for our Feast Day celebration last Sunday –especially our social events committee, the Rising Sun and those who came! Great worship of God and great food.
