Funding decision due as parish works to save Christ Church tower

The Parish of Wanstead’s Heritage Lottery Fund bid to save Christ Church’s tower will be decided this month.

“The tower needs significant work to make it structurally sound. This will cost hundreds of thousands of pounds,” said Rev James Gilder.

As part of fundraising efforts, 70 people from Wanstead completed a sponsored walking pilgrimage to Canterbury in July, raising £13,000.

“We’re determined to ensure Christ Church remains a much-loved feature of the local landscape for years to come.”
