St Michael and All Angels needs to undertake urgent repairs and identify a long-term sustainable future. The first need is for an accurate measured survey from which to develop design drawings.The second need is an asbestos survey to comply with Health and Safety Regulations.The third need is to undertake a costed feasibility study, to identify potential new income generating and community uses and to ensure there are no barriers to inclusion. For example, there needs to be step-free access throughout the main areas of the building, with accessible WC's and a baby change area, adequate lighting and a new heating system installed. It also needs to include a costed schedule of urgent repairs looking at the roofs, rainwater goods, stone work and heating and electical systems.
