St Andrew the Less Community Project
@standrewtheless.bsky.social
We are a volunteer-led group working to rescue and revitalise the 13th-century church of St Andrew the Less on Newmarket Road, Cambridge for heritage and community use. www.standrewtheless.org
We’ve received a brilliant piece of research from ecclesiastical historian Michael Yelton, charting the many changes to St Andrew the Less since 1801. This work
will guide our plans to restore it for the community. You can read it here: www.standrewtheless.org/heritage/180...

Yesterday, we were in the Cambridge Independent.... 🤩
We were told to look serious, as the state of the church is a serious matter, which prompted much giggling. But behold, the photographer managed to get us in a moment of gravitas

A big thank you to Daniel Zeichner, our MP, for visiting St Andrew the Less on Friday!
We loved showing him around and chatting about our plans to restore the building, celebrate its heritage, and open it up again for community.
It’s wonderful to see growing interest and support for the project

Had a wonderful meeting with @cambridgeppf.org discussing the restoration of ancient buildings for community use - CPPF look after Cambridge's 12th Century Leper Chapel,/, just down the road from St Andrew the Less and sharing the fascinating medieval history of our area. Here's to collaboration!

Had a great meeting with @RogerLilley, editor of capturingcambridge.org and chair of @themuseumofcambridge. Looking forward to sharing lots of history with his *amazing and fascinating* website exploring Cambridgeshire's history, and potential collaborations with the Museum of Cambridge
