The Friends of St Leonard’s, Flamstead is a Charitable Trust dedicated to preserving and maintaining the fabric of the ancient Grade I listed church that has stood at the heart of the village for nearly 900 years.

Friends are welcome from all religions or none, to share a respect for tradition, architecture, and contemporary village life.

The Friends raise funds in a number of ways:

  • Annual Membership Subscription
  • Fundraising Events
  • Individual Donations and Bequests

The Friends were founded in 1995. Our aim is to raise funds to preserve the church building and its surroundings, not just for the benefit of church goers but for the community as a whole.

Have you wondered why there's scaffoldinSt Leonard's Church Flamstead Flamstead again? It's for essential work to be carried out to secure the vestry and chancel roofs and make them water-tight. The tiles are all being inspected and reset/pointed as required. The chimney is also being repointed. While the scaffolding is in place work will also be carried out to renovate the guttering.This is all being funded by supporters of the village charity, the Friends of St Leonard's and will cost in the region of £12,000. If you would like to donate to the charity there's a link on our website where you can make a one off contribution or sign up to a regular donation. www.friendsofstleonards.orgOnce this area of the church is restored, it also means that the extensive collection of historic documents which have been archived as part of the Heritage Project can be safely stored for future generations. ...
