The deteriorating slates and mossSt Andrew’s Church has a lot of slates! Round about 15,000 slates need to be taken off and cleaned. Half of them have cracks and will need to be replaced.

Become a part of the history of this ancient building by sponsoring a slate:

  • To celebrate a special event in your life
  • To remember your wedding
  • In thanks for a child baptised in the ancient font
  • In memory of a loved one
  • Or to make a lasting difference to St Andrew’s for future generations

All slate sponsors will be recorded in a dedicated heritage book which will include their name and a message. This will become a permanent part of our church records.

You can sponsor a slate for just £10.00 by:

  • downloading and completing the sponsor form and sending it along with your cheque to the address on the form: Sponsor a Slate
  • donating online via Give as you Live. Either include the message you wish to be included in the heritage book or email it separately to RenovationGroup@kildwick.org.uk. If you would like to be kept informed of the ‘Raising the Roof’ project, please check the box ‘I would like to receive emails from St Andrew’s Church Kildwick’ (we promise not to bombard your email inbox!). Please Gift Aid your donation if you are able.
