Hadrian's Wall Walk - Marisa & Bob · 16 June 2023

Help us restore St Helens Dry Sandford! We are raising major funds to repair structural damage, replace the roof and bring St. Helen's Church back to life!

Story

We are walking the entire length of Hadrian's Wall this June - all 84 miles - from west to east. This is the largest Roman archeological feature in Britain (begun in AD 122) and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We'll be taking a week to complete this trek. At the same time, we'll be raising funds & awareness towards the Restoration Project to re-open our village church, St. Helen's Dry Sandford. All funds donated will go directly to the Restoration Project (we've already covered our own travel costs).

The church has been closed since 2019 due to a fall of masonry from the interior wall and we are awaiting enough funds to cover the cost of repair so we can re-open the Nave.

As members of the congregation (and one of the Churchwardens), we've been working tirelessly to achieve this. We are about three-quarters of the way to our goal of £150,000 and need your help!

We each connect to the Church in a unique way, but the shared vision in restoring the building is to open up the space even more to the community. Every penny you donate goes towards the restoration project, ensuring that this special place is there for future generations.
