Friends of Westbury Church

Registered Charity No. 1050069

 

Westbury Church is tucked away and sometimes it may be easy to forget that is there.  Even if we are not regular church goers, we may take it for granted that it will always be there for the major events in our lives such as christenings, weddings and funerals.

 

We are lucky that we have a beautiful ancient church dating back to the 1200’s, but like all old buildings, it needs constant care and attention.  There is always ongoing maintenance   to be paid for.  The organ has just been repaired;  now the Chancel roof needs to be fixed and the internal walls need to be redecorated.

 

The Friends of Westbury Church was formed to give financial support to such repairs but, because of the pandemic, we have been unable to hold our usual fundraising events.  At the moment we are only able to raise income by membership subscription.  If you are not already a member ( perhaps new to the village) we invite you to consider becoming a member in order to help conserve our wonderful building.  Membership for 2021 remains at £10 for an adult and £5 for a young person under 21.
