All Saints, Biddenden: Have you had a chance to pause and appreciate our beautiful Grade I listed village church recently? All Saints has been at the heart of Biddenden for over 700 years, providing a place of worship, comfort, and community through both joyful and challenging times. Today, it continues to serve in new ways housing a Takeaway Pantry, Community Library, and much more. The care of this special building and its ministry is entirely the responsibility of our small congregation, with no external funding from the Church of England or government. We now face urgent structural repairs and need to raise a significant sum to preserve the church for future generations. If you could spare a moment, please do watch our short YouTube clip and read our Fundraising Information Leaflet explaining what’s needed.  Your support would mean so much.

All Saints:
The church now has an ‘Easy Fundraising’ account.
If you shop online you can support the church by nominating

Then each time you shop using one of the partners that support easy fundraising, eg TUI, Tesco, John Lewis and loads more, that retailer donates a percentage of what you spend to the church, no extra cost to you. Please consider signing up and helping us to maintain our beautiful church.  Thank you.
