Friends of the East Church
The Friends are a group of people who are interested both in the history of East Church and in its long term use. There are a variety of ways you can become involved:
- If you are local to Cromarty you might be interested in helping to digitally archive church records, assisting with plans for gravestone condition monitoring.
- Friends also work to raise funds for the East Church, and after restoration will be arranging events – such as musical evenings or flower festivals in the church
- If you live at a distance, but would like to support the Friends group by making a donation contact Victoria Collison-Owen, Scottish Redundant Churches Trust Director by emailing contact@srct.org.uk or phone 01334 472032
If you would simply like to keep in touch with the conservation work at the church you can join an email list to receive the East Church Newsletter.
If you have enquiries about the church contact the local community and education workers – David Alston and Caroline Vawdrey - by email at info@eastchurchcromarty.co.uk or phone on 01381 600243
