02 Activities
What the charity does
We continue to promote Cheltenham Minster St Mary's in the town and to help provide financial support for projects which the Parochial Church Council cannot afford. We also liaise with external organisations who carry out work on the Minster from time to time and make donations to bodies who improve the Minster, for example the Tower Bells.
