CCTV Appeal for donations: you may be aware that we have had significant vandalism and upset recently around the churchyard. (Paint thrown on gravestones, tiles damaged and abusive youths hanging around). The PCC intend to install CCTV cameras around the church exterior to deter these incidents, identify culprits and report them to the police. The expected cost of this system is a minimum of £1554. We are asking for your help, including the many visitors to graves of relatives who have been affected or made complaints, to raise this figure. If you pay tax, please consider gift aiding any donation. (See the Wardens or Treasurer. Let’s make the government help us out too!) Any amount donated will see us reach this target quickly and will be sincerely appreciated. The summer holidays are rapidly approaching and we are bracing ourselves for more incidents. You can bring donations to church, or push them through the vicarage letter box. If you require a receipt, we need your name and address please, and / or if you wish the donation to be acknowledged in the magazine. (any cheques please make Payable to St Peter’s PCC, and include a note to say it is for the CCTV Appeal) Thank you in anticipation of your generosity. The Vicar
