Churches
Supporting the people who care for historic places of worship
Looking after a church building can feel overwhelming, especially when it’s old, complex and short on funds. Whether you’re tackling urgent repairs, planning a reordering, or simply trying to make your church warmer and more welcoming, it can be hard to know where to begin.
That’s where I come in.
As a conservation-accredited architect and Quinquennial Inspector across several dioceses, I have supported many churches through repair, renewal, and change. I understand the Faculty process, the pressures on PCCs, and the delicate balance between tradition and the evolving needs of a modern congregation.
Sometimes I’m brought in to advise on a specific issue like improving energy performance or addressing roof repairs. Other times, I walk alongside a church for years, helping it through a longer-term process of transformation. Whatever the context, I take time to listen and support you in making informed, confident decisions.
Regardless of the scope, my aim is always the same: to help churches remain active, loved, and fit for the future. That might mean securing permissions, engaging the wider community, or simply helping you feel less alone in what can be a complex journey.
Whatever the scale of the work, I’m here to help you take care of your church so it can keep taking care of others.
