Church Hall Development - Cost: £81000
This is a huge project to refurbish and upgrade both the Upper and Lower Halls but a lot has been given or pledged already.
- Build an extension to the front of the Hall building
- Re-build and refurbish both Gents and Ladies Toilets in Upper Hall
- Build an accessible toilet for the disabled in the Upper Hall
- Build a Mother and Baby Changing and Breastfeeding Room
- Build new ramp outside at front of the extension to the main reception area
Accessible toilet in the Church Hall - Cost: £1500
The extension to the front entrance of the Church Hall enables us to install a purpose-built accessible toilet - something that is urgently needed in order to make our facilities truly available to all.
Overhaul of the Radiators in the Lower Hall - Cost: £500
The radiators in the Lower Hall are not working as effiently as they should. They need to be overhauled in order to give them a new lease of life.
Resurfacing of the Hall Car Park - Not Yet Costed
The Church Hall car park is in need of resurfacing with marked parking spaces. At present the surface is cracked and uneven and floods in places when there is heavy rain.
Computer and Presentation Software Upgrade - Cost: £1000
The computer we use in church for services - projecting the words of songs, videos and Powerpoint presentations - is no longer up to the job.
We would like to buy software that would make all visual media run smoothly, and a new or refurbished computer would be required to run the software. A suitable laptop is also needed for use in the hall for Turning Point.
Church Path Resurfacing
The plan is to resurface the path from the main gate to the entrance to the church building. The path is uneven in places and resurfacing will prevent further deterioration.
Welcome Board - Cost: £228
A new welcome board is need to display information at the way-side pulpit. The cost covers signage
Microphones for Services - Cost: £385
A second radio microphone is needed for worship on Sundays and at other times so that more than one person can participate in leading the service with a microphone than enables them to move around and be hands-free.
New Foldable Chairs for the Hall - Cost: £480
At present we do not have enough chairs for large numbers of people. Chairs cost £12 each.
Chairs with Arm Rests - Cost: £500
These chairs are needed for those using the Hall who are not so mobile. These chairs cost £50 each.
Four small tables - Cost: £200 (£50 each)
Additional tables are needed as replacements for those that are no longer usable.
Repairs to Windows - Cost: £500 (subject to a current quote)
Some of the windows in the church building have minor damage that needs to be repaired and the stained glass window in the belfry requires new protection on the outside and some cleaning and repair work.
