View from the Central door during building works

BUILDING WORKS.

This week (Jan 12th) the central partition wall in our foyer has now been removed. Above is the new view from our central door.

From late October 2011 we have finally begun the Improvement Works to the building. Springworths Builders have constructed a new ramp and new main entrance route, to provide better disabled access to the Church. There will also be a new side entrance gate to the back rooms and completely re-fitted toilets. The Foyer area is now open to the rest of the Chapel, and new servery and re-fiting are underway to take forward our plans for a cafe facility linking directly to an exhibition, display and meeting  space.

 

 

Top tips for saving energy and reducing climate change

Volunteering opportunities: There are lots of ways you can help with the activities at the Church. see here for details...

HERITAGE and ARTS: We are working to improve the ways the people of Leicester can use our buildings. We are also developing our knowledge of the history and heritage of the Church building and Church life, through Oral history projects and archive research. We are keen to expand the range of concerts and exhibitions, and hope to make the church more suited to this. If you are interested in using our church in these ways, please contact us. We are also now featuring a number of artworks by local contemporary artists in our Wakerley Room.

PRAYER: We are a church that values prayer, and there are daily prayers at 1.00pm for anyone who finds themselves in Leicester City Centre. Our members are encouraged to pray daily. For a Prayer for Today, see the prayer on the National Methodist website.
