Now raising funds for St Paul’s Church
One cause that we are supporting is the restoration of the Nicholson Organ in Irton Church.
Mr John Corran, who is 69, has cycled 3800 miles since the beginning of May to raise funds for the restoration of the 147-year-old Nicholson organ that he plays occasionally in his home church, St Paul’s, Irton, in the Lake District.
