Parish of Curdworth, Middleton and Wishaw

Preparation of a New Electoral Roll

The current Parish Electoral Roll was compiled in 2019 and has been regularly maintained and updated, with total numbers reported, as required, on an annual basis.

The Church Representation Rules require a completely new Roll to be compiled every 6 years and all persons who wish to have their names entered on the new Roll, whether their names appear on the present Roll or not, will be requested to apply for enrolment.
Our objective is to complete the new Roll by 31^st March 2025 in order that required details can be displayed for a specified period prior to the Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM) scheduled for 11^th May 2025.

The formal announcement will be posted on noticeboards in January 2025 and Application Forms will be available in churches in January 2025, and on-line, and copies will be included with the January Newsletters.

You may have watched the funeral service for Queen Elizabeth, we want you to know that C of E funeral services are available for everyone. Absolutely everyone, whatever their lives have brought to them.

You don’t have to be a churchgoer!

Traditional service in church? We can help you.

Split service in Church and at the Crematorium? We can help you

Service at the crem? We can help you.

Memorial after a direct cremation? We can help you.

The content of any service for your loved one will be carefully tailored to suit your family and your loved one. Traditional elements, modern elements, personal words shared with you and for you.

We aren’t just there for a service or event, we’re there for for you during your period of mourning and afterwards too. Church is a community of support and hope. We understand that grief is a journey and can help you find your way through with prayer, conversation and special services to remember your loved one down the years.

It’s not expensive to have a funeral or memorial in church, or to have a minister lead your service at the crematorium. If we don’t know you we will get to know you, listen to you and help you say goodbye.
