Herschel Halo infra-red heating chandelier for All Saints Church, Turkdean

All Saints Church
launches fund-raising appeal for new infra-red heaters in the Nave

1st March, 2024
We are now setting off to raise £20,000 to fund the installation of two 7800W Herschel infrared heating chandeliers, hopefully in time for the Winter!

Since the removal of the rood screen and the re-joining of Chancel and Nave, more of our congregation now sit in the Nave and these infra-red heaters will effectively heat the congregation without having to heat the whole volume of the Nave space, thus helping to fulfill the churches “net zero” ambitions.
