St Mary's Welcome Project or 'Project Welcome' is aiming to widen the use of the church to provide our community with a flexible and accessible space.

Currently, Project Welcome is fundraising so that we will be able to add to the amenities of St Mary's. We are planning on providing a WC and a kitchen servery, together with a flexible space at one side of the building. With the new pathway from the road, this new community space will be fully accessible to all, including pushchairs and for those who have disabilities.

We hope that everyone in Sturminster Marshall and the surrounding countryside will want to get involved in Project Welcome. There will be an extensive array of events and activities in the village to help raise the necessary funds, which we will be advertising regularly on this page, local community groups and on our village noticeboards, so do keep an eye out!

St Mary's Church has been a place of worship for hundreds of years and we very much hope our project will add to that experience for everyone, now and for the future: a sacred and social space for the village community.

Anyone who is keen to get involved with Project Welcome or wants find out more, please do get in touch on here or by emailing [email protected].
