The Friends of
Bangor Abbey come from many denominational backgrounds but are united in our
enthusiasm for exploring the Abbey's history and in preserving the present
'site'. We are also
committed to the continuing work and witness of the Church.
Through our
programme of activities and fund raising events we seek to make the history
of the Abbey, and the Abbey itself, available to as many people as possible
locally, nationally and indeed internationally.
Through 'Friends' those who have associations with the Abbey but who now
live elsewhere are able to keep in touch with the life of the church and
make a contribution to its work.
Friends
activities include ....... Trips to ecclesiastical sites in Britain and
Ireland. Lectures & illustrated talks, Musical events, Guided tours of the
Abbey and Graveyard and Fund raising.
Recently the
Friends have made contributions to the restoration of the graveyard and the
purchase of gardening tools as well as a donation towards the purchase of
the new Church Hymnal.
