Rutland Historic Churches Preservation Trust
Thistleton LE15 7REOur story
To pass on our inherited places of worship diligently preserved, as we have received them, to the next generation,
Why we're raising money
Rutland has 64 fine churches that attract many visitors to the area. there is an expectation that the churches will always be there for people to enjoy. In fact, the cost of keeping these churches in good repair is high and Rutland Historic Churches Preservation Trust was set up in 1954 to help.
We provide funds where needed and in 2023/24 gave grants totalling £40,000
We hold the Ride and Stride Event every two years, and this raises around £20,000 but we also need donations and legacies to keep our funds alive.
