Please help us keep the church open:

Dear Visitor,

We are the custodians of major international artworks. We also have a Norman building to take care of - and there are two other churches in the parish.

There is damp in the north wall. There are heating bills to pay. The window embrasures need remedial work. But we are a tiny parish: on the parish roll there are just 71 names (Dec 2010).

Maintaining our church with its unique art works costs around £200 a day, and we receive no funding either from the Church of England or from government.

So if you feel able to help us with a donation - no matter how small - we shall be very grateful indeed. You can use Paypal or your credit card. Or you can buy stuff from our online shop.

Please help us by clicking the DONATE button now (goes to general church funds: to donate specifically to The Chagall Window Preservation Trust, see below).
 

Thank you.

You will have the pleasure of knowing that you have helped to maintain a lovely building, a place of spiritual peace, and the site of Chagall's masterpieces.

Chloë Teacher writes:

"We can marvel at the Chagall windows at Tudeley but we must be aware of the need to maintain them. A detailed study has been prepared by Léonie Seliger of the Cathedral Studios, Canterbury, which identifies problems that need addressing now and highlights future inevitable maintenance requirements.  

A small group of us is in the process of creating a structure which will concern itself with the continued welfare of the windows and their immediate surrounds. Any funds collected will be designated as being for the upkeep of the Chagall glass at All Saints' Tudeley.

Please help ensure that what we enjoy today will be available to enjoy tomorrow."
