Recipient Org: Description St Mary Magdalene Church in Ditcheat fulfils all the normal criteria of a parish church of the Church of England: worship services, teaching, preaching, pastoral care, visiting parishioners, baptisms, weddings, funerals, bereavement care, etc. The Church is fortunate in having the Church Room, a Victorian schools room with kitchen and toilet additions, but it is very underused, and now the PCC has plans to renovate the premises so that they are warm all year round, well lit, with good catering facilities and cheerfully decorated in keeping with a period building. When the building work is done there will be follow up work with various organisations so that the Church Room may develop a more creative relationship with the local community.
