Thanks to the National Churches Trust and the National Lottery Community fund, we are able to repair our two flat roofs which are critical to the functioning of our building and our ongoing work of building community, relieving isolation and creating a refuge for those in need. Below is some further information about our two generous supporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The National Churches Trust is delighted to support St. Barnabas Parish Church with a grant towards the repair of our North flat roof.Churches are the beating hearts of our communities. The National Churches Trust will continue to speak up to champion churches, like St. Barnabas as well as to push for the sustainable support that churches across all four nations urgently need. Through our grants, we will continue to support churches to help them to remain in good condition and open for all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 1953, thanks to the generosity of our Friends and supporters, the National Churches Trust have provided over 12,000 grants and loans and ensured that thousands of churches, chapels and meeting houses throughout the UK have remained open and in use, supporting local people and at the centre of thousands of communities. In 2022, through our grants we were able to remove 18 Churches and chapels from Historic England’s\u2019 Heritage at Risk Register. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
