· by jonathangilliatt | Sept. 3, 2026, 5:25 p.m.
This event is being held in support of the St James' Church "New Beginnings Project". The accessible funds currently stand at £594,000. We require the full sum of £600,000. The start of construction is imminent. All permissions have been granted! The funds will pay for extending the building and improve the fabric of St James' Church. Improvements will include toilets, a kitchen, a far more flexible use of the church space with seats which can be removed and stored. It is anticipated to hold a variety of external events. As a result St James' Church will confidently move forward in its ability and mission in providing a safe space with equality, diversity, inclusion, conservation and community at its heart. You can find more about this project by visiting the St James' Church website at: https://stjameschristleton.org.uk/index.php
Come and join us at 7pm 10th October 2026.
