Those living nearby to St Lukes Church Tunbridge wells will have noticed that the church clock quarter chimes have fallen silent. The motor has burnt out and the cost to replace it is about £2000. Will you help us restore these charming melodic chimes please? So many local residents say they set their watches by them, rely on them to signal it is time for tea, or that they need to run the rest of the way to the station if they are going to catch their train. Please help us to bring the joy back and restore the church bells to their former glory
