We were founded in 1762 by Swiss Emigrants. In 2009 a conversion of the Church building enabled us to not only be a traditional Reformed Church, but also a Community Hub for Swiss in the Uk, and a Cultural venue for the arts and music. £30,000 would enable us to maintain our beautiful building.

    Situation

    We operate in a beautiful Grade 2 listed Church, built in 1855, and renovated by renowned Swiss architects Christ and Gantenbein in 2009. To enable us to maintain and improve the Church we need to raise at least £30,000 a year.

    Solution

    Further funds will enable us to improve the acoustics in the building and maintain the fabric and make better use of the building. The Church holds Sunday Services twice a month and runs French and German-speaking social group. We celebrate Swiss National Day, Samichlaus and other Swiss events. Community outreach provides breakfast to the homeless and vulnerable each week. We run a wide and diverse cultural and arts programme.
