Friends of St George's was established in 2002 to form a 'supporters club' to maintain this important building after its restoration. At first it was envisaged that the Friends would adopt the restoration of the organ as their special project (as the organ was not included in the restoration plan). however, with the growing scope of the restoration, it became clear the organ (which had come to St George's in the 1950s) needed to be removed and was not of sufficient calibre to be stored and renovated.

With the growing length of projects it was decided to put the Friends 'on hold' and those who had joined became 'Founder Friends'. The decision to remove the Victorian pews and replace them with movable pew benches (designed by Luke Hughes of Drury Lane) required a fundraising campaign. Those who sponsored a pew were made additional members of the Friends.

From time to time there has been a number of events to which the Friends have been invited. (e.g. the Summer Party 2007 where John Julius Norwich spoke about the 'Duff Cooper Diaries' and more recently, a talk on the North gallery restoration by Kevin Rogers)

Friends have been kept abreast of events and activities in the church (religious and secular) by means of email and letter. This year we hope to completely restructure the Friends- setting it up as an organisation with its own constitution and officers. Once this has been achieved we will re-launch the Friends and move toward actively recruiting new members.

In the meantime, if you would like to be considered for the Friends please make contact with the Development Officer. You will be immediately placed on the contact database for future events and activities and when the future becomes clearer we will make contact with you.
