In the week prior to Christmas, we spent more than £7,000 replacing most of the windows in our church and community hall with toughened glass and, in some cases, Perspex covering to repair previous and prevent new damage.

Immediately after Christmas, some thoughtless, heartless gang of vandals has

chosen to diminish our efforts by breaking two of the new windows in our hall and causing paint damage to several others.

Will this unnecessary vandalism ever cease and will those responsible be brought to justice? It seems unlikely but, rest assured no matter how little you value or respect our property and beliefs, you will not prevent us from continuing our worship in this place.
