St James’ is approaching 165 years of ministry and mission. To mark this milestone, we are launching Project 165 - a one-year fundraising campaign to raise £165,000 for essential property repairs and improvements. It will address urgent maintenance needs and help secure the long-term future of our church as a place of worship, welcome and witness for generations to come

There is a presentation with photos and details of work undertaken in 2025 and the renovations, repairs and improvements still needed.
Giving to Project165 We invite everyone to pause, pray and reflect before God and seek the Holy Spirit as we consider how to respond. Let us remember that giving is an act of worship, offered freely and joyfully, as each person is led by the Holy Spirit. Every gift - large or small - will be used for God’s purpose and glory.
