2. Building Beyond. St Peter’s 200th Anniversary building appeal.



News from St Peter’s Church of the start of their 200th Anniversary building appeal. The church is planning a significant programme of restoration along with a host of improvements to their community facilities and they are now busy preparing their application to the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

To help inform that bid, they are looking for help to work out what local people want from St Peter’s Church, how they feel about St Peter’s Church, and what the church can do to make this Grade 1 listed Soane building open to more and more people to enjoy and appreciate in lots of different ways.

Please take 5 minutes to fill in this survey: https://stpeterswalworth.typeform.com/survey

More information about the project to follow as it moves forward.
