Since establishing in 2008 the Friends has raised money towards two major projects:

  • the restoration of St. George’s West Window
  • Installation of new lighting in St George’s and cleaning of the interior

The Friends have contributed over £35,000 towards the costs to complete these projects but we need your help to continue the work we do supporting our Grade 1 listed church. Any donations are welecomed and appreciated

Joan Trinder

Treasurer & Membership Secretary

I joined Friends of St George’s at its inception to contribute whatever I could to maintain a marvellous Grade I listed building and its cultural significance to the community of people living in Jesmond.

Along the way I’ve had a lot of fun and met a lot of lovely people at the fundraising events that the Friends run. Membership is great value at £10, the events are always great fun and the concerts are top-notch. Very soon after I joined in 2010 I was asked to join the committee as a community member and become Treasurer, a role I’ve been happy to perform ever since.
