Impact Update

We are really excited as we now have all the permissions we need to move to Tender and Build Phase on our Building project called Impact. Faculty approval has recently been granted by the Chancellor for the Diocese of York, Lyndsey de Mestre KC.

Impact is The Belfrey’s first major building project in well over a century. It is both necessary, costly and a wonderful opportunity to transform our Grade 1 listed church building in a way that is welcoming, accessible and flexible. We are excited that it will be a place that welcomes more people, encourages people to stay longer, develops and sends out more leaders and is a blessing to the city.

Over 85% of the funds have already been received towards this c£10.5m project which has been an amazing answer to prayer and we continue to work to raise the remaining 15% or £1.5m. In recent weeks members of The Belfrey including some of the children, teenagers, young adults and leaders have staged activities such as a Football competition to to raise funds.

You can find out more about the project at belfrey.org/impact, including viewing our thrilling 3D video walkthrough of what the building is envisaged will look like when Impact is complete.

Please join us as we keep praying for the Board and Design team, led by LDN Architects, that the work is done effectively and progress is timely.
