Building Work Appeal
In December 2020 we launched our appeal to raise £100K for essential building maintenance. Most significantly the Tower Room roof needs a complete rebuild and the heating system needs replacing.
Donations specifically for this appeal can also be made online using the dedicated link
Alternatively, cash or cheques (made payable to Dunnington PCC) can be put through the Rectory Letterbox (Church Street) or via your normal church contacts. Please mark the envelope with “fabric donation”. This will ensure your donation is assigned to the fabric fund used specifically for this work.
If you can gift-aid your donations this would be appreciated as this will enable us in addition to claim some tax back. Gift-aid envelopes are available in the church or from the Church Wardens or download the DPCC Gift Aid Declaration Form.
For further information, advice or assistance on any of these methods, please contact our treasurer or churchwardens.
THANK YOU!

There are no festivals or Saints’ Days in Easter week.
Maundy Thursday
It is Maundy Thursday today, as you will know, a day not to be overlooked.
We look forward to Easter Day, but the journey to that day takes us through Maundy Thursday and Good Friday. Without these days, Easter arrives without its true context.
As we are not gathering for our usual service tonight, we have created a short service to share with you. Maybe watch it this evening as it is getting dark. The link is below, and the service will be available from 12 noon today.
With every blessing during this holy season.
