Stonham Aspal and Mickfield Church, £1,000 Award Nomination

Ecclesiastical Insurance are running a grant applications of £1,000 for Charity projects. The form is super small and simple. We would love you to nominate our ‘Toilet project’. Holding the free coffee mornings each week, school and preschool services, having events where food is served are but a few of the times when a toilet and hand washing facilities would be heaven.
Please click on the link below, when it asks for the Charity number, please tick the exempt box as Church’s do not have to have a number. The more nominations we have the more chance we have of a £1,000 award.
Thanking you in anticipation.
