Phill, our Parish Priest, has made a spiritual journey walking the

160-mile pilgrim trail from Porto to Santiago de Compostela in January.

Inspired by Phill, and to raise money to maintain the ancient and beautiful parish church of Burghill, we plan to walk the 480-mile pilgrim trail from St Jean Pied de Port in the French Pyrenees to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in north-western Spain virtually!

About the charity

We belong to the Church of England serving several scattered rural villages and hamlets in Herefordshire. Our beautiful listed church building, dating back to the 12th century is the spiritual hub of the community offering worship, fellowship, baptisms and funerals. We also hold many weddings each year and numerous social events. It costs £1,000 each week to run and maintain the building and churchyard in order to enable these events to take place. Our congregation, local community and visitors pay for this with no additional support. During the Covid-19 pandemic all churches have been locked and consequently our all normal events and sources of income have been severely reduced. We are using imaginative ways of reaching out to the community and raising funds whilst abiding by the lockdown rules.
