We needed £200,000 to buy the Silver Street Motors site to create a building for church and community. We raised 75% and have gone ahead in faith through an interest free loan while we find the rest.

Story

The Community Church in Colwall which we help to lead has a tiny building and needs space to grow.  Our vision is for a community building in the centre of the village in Silver Street which will serve the village and provide space for our growing church. The fundraising  has been amazing and with the help of an interest free loan we were able to secure the land by the deadline of 31st March.

Ever since school I disliked running but last year as my 65th birthday approached Jill and I joined a Couchto5k group ( that's the group in the photo )  Running with other people has been great.  The first 5k is not a problem but the second one is proving quite a challenge!   I have not got there yet but with the encouragement of your support will do on 15th April, even if I have to be dragged over the line.
