All Saints is planning to instal electric heating to replace the ancient and increasingly unreliable oil-fired heating. The new system, powered by electricity from renewable sources, will include under-pew convector heaters in each pew and wall-fitted halogen radiant heaters at the back of the Church were we serve refreshments. Significant reductions in carbon footprint and heating costs will be achieved. The new heating will cost around £40,000 and will be funded partly from existing church reserves and partly by grants from charitable trusts (some of which have already been received). We are hoping to raise the balance through personal donations from those in the local community. Furthermore, if such donations are made through the Church of England's "Give to Go Green" scheme between 11th August and 21st September 2025, they will be matched £ for £ by the Church of England, thus doubling the impact of donors' generosity.
