An Invitation to The Friends of St Mary the Virgin, Upchurch - Bell Tower Restoration Project Talk and AGM

The Friends of St Mary the Virgin, Upchurch (FOSM)

Talk and AGM

You are invited to a talk on Thursday the 24th of October 2024 from 7:00pm in the church.

Following a short meeting to transact AGM business we shall receive a talk from Elspeth Baeke on “The Bell Tower Restoration Project”.

Elspeth was the Project Manager on behalf of the Parochial Church Council and so speaks with first-hand knowledge on the matter.

The talk will review this now completed project - What was the problem? What was the solution? How did the community respond to funding the works?

The invitation to the talk is free of charge and open to all.

Wine and nibbles will be provided but donations will be welcomed.

The trustees look forward to seeing you at the AGM.

FOSM, as a registered secular charity, was formed to financially support the maintenance and repair of the historically listed church in the centre of our Parish. In this matter, FOSM has recently supported the Bell Tower Restoration Project by making grants to the church towards that project.

FOSM since being formed in 2011 has made grants to the church and will continue to do so in the future.

Grants made come from income raised through membership, donations, events and products. If you would like to become a Friend, i.e. a member, and support this charity, please contact Roger Pocock on: 01634 233521. Life or yearly memberships are available.

Hon. Alderman Gerry Lewin

Chairman of FOSM
