Posted on by

St Cuthbert, Ormesby will be holding a Patronal Festival over the weekend of 8th to 10th June 2018. All are welcome, particularly Teddy Bears.

Unfortunately the Church Tower is unsuitable for mounting a bungee rope so we will have a zip wire Teddy Bear Death Slide instead.

St Cuthberts Ormesby PCC and congregation would like to thank the following in proving financial support for roof repairs and recovering the roof in Stainless Steel. It should keep us water tight for at least another generation.

Allchurches Trust Limited

Sir John Priestman Charity Trust

The Jack Brunton Charitable Trust

Diocese of York Parish Loan Scheme

We would also like to thank our architects Ferry and Mennim and the contractor, Historic Property Restorations Ltd for carrying out the work.
