St. Mary's Heating and Seating Fundraising Campaign - Target £15,000With sincere thanks for the tremendous local community support (and especially to the new Sydenham Damerel Parish Meeting) we have done incredibly well and now face the final push to complete this essential improvement project. We have already raised £11,500 and, in anticipation of continued success from our fundraising, we have placed the order and paid the deposit of £858 for the final 20 chairs which will cost a total of £3,500 and be delivered in the new year. We continue to seek contributions to attain our goal of just over £15,000 so every little bit of help we receive goes towards completing the Heating and Seating campaign and allows us to focus our attention on the even more challenging but really exciting new project which is aimed at installing a toilet and a If you feel able to support this important project in any way then please let me know.Peter Hurdwell [Ed.
