The
stained glass windows are mostly memorial gifts. The
building we have today is as the result of gifts made by those who love this
place. If you
would like to make a gift, large or small, please contact us. Gifts can be anonymous or
recorded in our Memorial Gifts book as you wish. This page is a guide to our policy on Memorial Gifts and
a list of current requirements. |

Our Policy: St Peter’s receives many requests to
make gifts as memorials to loved ones.
In the past, we have sometimes had to refuse proposed gifts as they
did not fit in with either local or diocesan policy. This page is designed to help you choose a
gift that will be accepted. This list indicates the items that we
will currently be pleased to accept. To enquire about how to make a
bequest please contact the Curate (01634 373036) or our Wardens. St Peter’s is an ancient building
which, together with the churchyard, is subject to many rules and
regulations. Please do not make any
arrangements to purchase a particular item until you have our specific
written permission. The names of all those interred in
the churchyard are entered in the Book of Remembrance, displayed in the
chapel. The names of those remembered through
memorial gifts, and the gifts given can be entered into the Memorial Gifts
Book displayed in the chapel. We are
not able to accept the placing of plaques on particular items. If you are a UK tax payer then we can
reclaim the tax you have paid on any donation without any cost to you. This can add 25% to your gift. Please ask us if you would like to arrange this;
it is very simple and we don’t need any personal information beyond your name
and address. Please note, by
order of the Diocese, we are not able to accept any further gifts of benches
in the churchyard, other than replacement of existing benches by the original
donor family. |
