Rekindling St Augustine's

Rekindling St Augustine's A developing heritage project that aims to repair, reconfigure and rekindle St Augustine's church for the benefit of the Alston Moor community, Cumbria UK

Rekindling St Augustine’s for Alston
·
Creating a welcoming, warm, light and sonorous church building and churchyard that support the Alston Moor community to serve their needs, hosting people who come together to improve the quality of their own lives and increase the wellbeing of others. The church community is pulling together a bid for funding to make the church and churchyard more accessible

for everyone. We plan to: install heating; repair the leaking tower roof; reconfigure the nave; add a WC and servery kitchen; interpret the heritage; and make the churchyard more welcoming. Find out more on our website https://rekindlingstaugustines.wordpress.com/

This page has been rather quiet for a while, but that doesn't mean that nothing has been happening: we're thrilled that our restoration/reordering project is underway at last!

At the end of 2024 we appointed Doonan Architects to head up our project, and since then they have been busy with grounds and building surveys, drawing up plans, assessing heating needs etc.

We aim to have finished all the planning and development work, the grant applications and obtaining permissions, by the end of 2025, and to start work in 2026, finishing by St Augustine's Day 2027.

Will there be ways you can support us? Undoubtedly! Look out for details in the coming months.

No service at St Augustine's, but - weather permitting - there will be a 9.30am Holy Communion at Holy Paraclete Church, Kirkhaugh.
