Free resource to care for Norfolk churches
Norfolk churches are being offered a free practical guide to help care for their places of worship.
Last summer, English Heritage launched its Caring for Places of Worship campaign. With the help of Ecclesiastical Insurance, it sent copies of a free, practical booklet to more than 30,000 places of worship all over England.
The booklets, which are A5 size, bright red and contain a dvd, were mostly sent to the people on the mailing lists of Ecclesiastical, Methodist and Baptist Insurance companies who deal with insuring their local church, chapel or other place of worship. These people were asked to share the booklet with their PCC or congregation.
It could make all the difference to how you look after and use your own building – 28% of those who’ve read it said they have already made or planned new things because of the ideas in Caring for Places of Worship. Feedback has been that the most useful sections are those on improving maintenance, opening the building to more visitors, widening community use, fundraising and making the building more secure.
