Forthcoming events and news:
Heritage Open Days 2020
We had to postpone our programme for 2019-20 owing to the lockdown caused by the Covid pandemic. We hope, in the course of 2021, to be able to fulfil the programme we had arranged, but at present we cannot set dates for events. In the immediate future, we propose to participate in the national Heritage Open Day programme by opening the church on Friday 18 September 2020 from 14.00 to 1800, and Saturday 19 September from 10.00 to 15.00.
Programme of Events 2021 (dates yet to be settled)
We hope during 2021 to follow through the events which we proposed for 2020, our ‘year of William Morris’. Dates will be fixed as soon as possible.

The Trust is seeking new Trustees
The Trustees are appointed on fixed terms and several will be stepping down shortly on completion of their terms. We are consequently looking for new Trustees to take on the running of what has become a very vibrant and successful charitable trust. Naturally many Trustees have a connection with the church, but we are also keen to find Trustees who would represent the cultural and community life of Marple and its area, or who have relevant specialist knowledge in art and architecture. We particularly need a new Treasurer: the Trust’s financial affairs are not very onerous, but we need a person with some financial experience. Trustees serve on a voluntary basis, but for the Treasurer post we offer a modest honorarium in recognition of services rendered. If you are interested in becoming a Trustee, please contact the Chair of Trustees:
The Rev. Ann Hyde, Mellor View, 25 St Martin’s Road, Marple, Stockport SK6 7BY.
