Church and Community Working Together

This project has been made possible by the Church and Community working together to define requirements. The £25, 000 funding has been achieved by the generous grants of £10,000 from The National Lottery – Awards for All, £5,000 from The Church Community Fund and the remainder from monies raised from the Perranuthnoe Open Gardens, Local Fund raising events, Church Reserves, and Generous Private Gifts.

4th October 2010


The improvements planned for the CHURCH ROOM include the following:

- Flooring / Walls (damp proofing)
- Toilet facilities / grab rails
- Extended Kitchen / New Cooker
- Additional door (in the kitchen)
- Storage cupboards
- Hearing loop
- Notice boards









The day finally arrived, after 2 years of fund raising and planning, work was able to start on the refurbishment of the Church Room. As the following shots show the builder arrived, the electrician arrived and the portable loo - all essential items !!
It is expected that the work will take about 3 months to complete. We hope that this blog will provide updates as the work progresses.


Katie asked that to say a big thankyou here to our grant funders, namely:

Awards for All - a pot within the national lottery scheme(£10k)
Church and Community Fund (5k)
Open Gardens Fundraising
Church's own funds
Several generous donations from members of the community.

I would also add a HUGE THANK YOU to Katie herself for all her hard work in achieving the funding over the past 2 years and supportive Village Consultations - without which no renovation would have been possible.
