Many of us in the wider community, and the congregation, want to see our church continue as a place in which to hold regular worship, as well as weddings, funerals, the celebration of Remembrance Sunday and so on - when we are allowed after Covid. And just as a village needs a church, a church needs an organ. Our organ in All Saints’ is a fine instrument with an excellent acoustic, and has proved popular with visiting musicians. Sadly however, it fails from time to time and is in urgent need of repair. We have arranged for a reputable firm to carry out the works necessary to ensure continued and improved performance of the organ for this and future generations. The works are scheduled to be carried out this autumn and are estimated to cost c. £50,000 (including a provision for any ‘unknowns’ which appear when it has been dismantled). The Parochial Church Council, as Trustees of the Lawder legacy, and others, have underwritten part of the likely cost and the PCC is seeking further funds from the congregation, from grant-making bodies, and from the wider Wrington community. We had hoped to be able to announce an event or two to raise funds, and to celebrate the completion of the works. At present we are

unable to do so with any certainty because of the lockdown, but we are sure that we will be celebrating in the church with the villlage when it is all done. If you would like further information about the organ, the proposed works, or how we are going to manage this, please contact David Marsh (details below). In any event we hope that you will kindly confirm your support , and help - thank you. David Marsh Reply Slip
