The Rectorial Benefice of Neath

An invitation to join

“The Friends of St.David’s”

The Friends of St.David’s Church

St.David’s belongs to our whole community of Neath, both those who live and those who work in it. For over 100 years, it has served and been served by its people. It stands as a prominent and visible witness to the people and town of Neath.

The “Friends of St.David’s” are a group of people who appreciate the importance of the building to the well being of the town. They want to conserve it for future generations and encourage its use by the whole community for continuing prayer and worship, as well as other events.

They are prepared to express their goodwill by becoming a “Friend” and by doing so provide funds for the future, which may be used towards repairs or development that may be needed within the church.
