The Friends of St John’s was established in 1994 as a separate registered charity with the aim of raising money for the upkeep and improvement of the ‘church fabric’ (that is, the building and its fittings). From 1994 to 2023 more than £95,000 was raised, from donations and fund-raising events.
At a Special General Meeting of the Friends of St John’s on 4th September 2023, it was agreed that the Friends of St John’s be dissolved as a separate charity, to be replaced by directed giving to the St John’s Fabric Fund.
