What the accounts disclose
“St Mary’s continues to maintain reserves of three months running costs”
“The future: The formal closure of St Peter’s Church building is still awaited and is contingent on work to complete the land registration. The parish was closed by scheme and merged with St Mary’s, coming into effect on 26th February 2026 as the new parish of Todmorden, with Cornholme and Walsden. The Diocese will now meet the costs of St Peter’s Church, as well as St Michael’s.”
