CATHEDRAL CRAWL
in aid of St Helen's
Church Roof Repair Fund
Derek Brown, one of our parishioners and a Lay Eucharistic Minister at St Helen’s, intends to visit every cathedral in mainland England during 2008 and hopes to attend a service in each one.
This is part pilgrimage and part simply the fulfilment of a long held ambition of his. There are 42 cathedrals in total so this will take some time.
Derek is seeking sponsors with the intention of raising money towards the large amount needed to repair the church roof. (Information about the urgent and necessary roof repairs may be found by clicking here)
English Heritage have generously offered us grant aid but the amount the parish will have to find could be in excess of £120,000,
