Brockham Church Appeal - Your Church Urgently Needs Your Help!

          Church1

Christ Church on Brockham Green is a focal point of our beautiful village of Brockham in Surrey.

The church was constructed of very porous Reigate stone in 1845. Throughout the years, the external stonework has continued to erode and is now in need of urgent repair.

We are launching a Jubilee Fundraising Appeal to enlist the financial support of the community, including local and national businesses and charities, to raise £80,000 towards the cost of the restoration project which is currently estimated to be £100,000.

If our appeal is successful, work would commence in the summer of 2012. However, failure to raise the necessary funds will result in more erosion of the stonework affecting the appearance of the church as the centrepiece of the village of Brockham.

If donations to the project are given through Charitable Gift Aid, the Fund would benefit from a Tax Rebate and further increase the funds we receive.

The photos below show just some of the areas requiring urgent attention:

Please respond to this appeal by completing the Donation Form below or download the Donation Form here and emailing www.brockhamchurchappeal@brockham.org or by contacting any of the following members of the Fund Raising Committee.

If this project is successful the PCC would hope to undertake the long-awaited improvements to the Church Hall by improving the disabled assess and kitchen facilities and providing disabled toilet.

If you have any comments or suggestions regarding this project please contact members of the fund raising committee.
