Story

The oil-fired boiler that heats St Leonard's is failing fast, and we need your help to replace it.

We need to replace it so that we can continue to offer a warm welcome to everyone - for weddings, baptisms, and funerals. For Christmas, Easter, Plough Sunday, and Harvest. For every Sunday service, between services, and every day of the week. For now, and for years to come.

But we don't want to just get another fossil fuel system. In the face of climate chaos driven by carbon emissions, replacing a failing boiler with something greener is the perfect opportunity to show our love for the whole beautiful world that we believe was created by God for us to enjoy, cherish, and care for. Fortuitously, churches tend to be built facing East, with nice big South-facing roofs that are just perfect for solar panels...
