Summer 2026 Visitor Questionnaire
Visitor Questionnaire
INTRODUCTION
St. Thomas’ Church is a Grade II Listed Building, a ‘church at risk’. A brief walk around outside reveals many areas of masonry decay, and parts of the roof leak. In addition, the heating system is old and inefficient and we need more versatile space for church and community use. We are applying to National Heritage Lottery Fund for a grant for this work. In preparation for this we wish to collect data about our visitors, a ‘where we are now’ exercise. Please help us by completing this short simple questionnaire by choosing the most appropriate responses which apply to you.
