The Friends of The Priory, as the name implies, is a group of individuals whose annual subscriptions and donations play a vital role in enabling many of the repairs and renewals that the congregation could not afford on its own.

The main object of The Friends is to assist in the restoration, repair and beautification of the Priory. 

Founded in 1945, The Friends have been very generous over the years.  In the last few years we have financed many of the window grilles protecting the ancient stained glass from vandalism, and the supply of thirty chairs for the Lady Chapel (see above).  

In addition the Friends have contributed to many projects over recent years including a much needed baby-changing facility in the toilet area, cupboards for the Flower arrangers, help with the bells, and supported displays for Threads through Creation and Priory 900 exhibitions.  

If you would like to help maintain this fine building, please become a Friend, which you can do by filling in this form.

The annual subscription is a minimum of £10 but please feel free to donate what you wish.
