Annual Report for the Friends of the Church of St Philleigh 2025
The charity continued to raise money to support the Church of St Philleigh this year. We ran four separate fundraising events during the year: a fun ride(horses) around the parish, a Gala Concert in the church and the usual two Philleigh Fayres during the summer holidays. Good weather was enjoyed on all of these days meaning that visitor attendance was good and the financial outcome high. The concert was especially well received locally and we intend to present another one in 2026.
The total grants given to the PCC amounted to £4974, which money was used to help preserve the fabric of the church, maintain the churchyard and keep the church open for the benefit of locals and visitors alike.
We are very grateful to all our volunteers who work especially hard on the field at the two Philleigh Fayres.
