I was really pleased to hear from the Listed Places of Worship & Memorial (LPW) Grant Scheme team at the Department for Culture, Media & Sport, that a number of places of worship across Corby & East Northamptonshire have been awarded funding for essential maintenance and repairs. This is fantastic news, and I’m sure the funding has been welcomely received and I’m glad that these beautiful historic buildings and important community spaces of faith and togetherness, will be able to be enjoyed for years to come. Indeed, I would like to say a particularly big 'thank you' to all those involved in delivering these local projects, recognising the enormous - so often voluntary - effort that goes into this, often unnoticed, but with real impact and for the betterment of our community.
