Scottish Churches House - A New Lease of Life
Scottish Churches House Jubilee Appeal raises sufficient funds to enable ACTS to proceed with Phase 1 of refurbishment.
Posted on May 9, 2008
PRESS RELEASE
9 MAY 2008
From: Action of Churches Together in Scotland
On Thursday 08 May 2008, a meeting of the Forum of Action of Churches Together in Scotland (ACTS) was held in Scottish Churches House, Dunblane.
On the agenda was the Scottish Churches House Jubilee Appeal.
The meeting was delighted to receive news that the Jubilee Appeal has raised sufficient funds to enable ACTS to proceed with Phase 1 of the refurbishment of Scottish Churches House. Phase 1 will substantially improve the residential accommodation at the house.
ACTS Forum expresses its thanks to the many donors who have generously contributed to the appeal and is especially grateful to the Scottish Churches House Interim Management Group who initiated and organised this stage of the appeal.
We look forward to improving the facilities at Scottish Churches House and will continue to seek public support for the Jubilee Appeal in order to cover future phases of the refurbishment.
Scottish Churches House is a small ecumenical retreat and conference centre, situated in a collection of properties alongside Dunblane Cathedral. Since its establishment in 1960 Scottish Churches House has played a significant part in the development of ecumenical activity in Scotland and in the engagement of the Churches with wider society. It is held in great affection by many people across the denominations and country.
