Property Group

The members of the Bristo Property Group over the past year have been Stuart Rendle, Brian Wilson, Robert Mill and Craig Smith. We were also delighted to be joined in the few months of 2010 by Leszek Kurtyka who looks after the Church gardens.
The team meet monthly, and have been together for a number of years now. We have good relationships and work well with each other. This is a group of folk who love the Lord, who are also pro-active and happy to take ownership of tasks; willing also to see them through to the finish.
2009 - 2010 has been a good year for the Property team, with quite a number of jobs dealt with and completed. These include:
· replacement of the Manse boiler (which was 25 years old)
· arranging for signage to go up onto the notice boards at the front of the church. Many thanks to Caroline Connell for her eye catching designs
· improving the fire safety signage around the church and liaising with the Arch school to arrange fire drills
· repair work to the plumbing in both the Gents toilet and the Baptistry
· implementing the various requirements of this year’s follow-up Health and Safety inspection
There are also a few items that are on-going, one of which is the Church garden. This is kept very tidy and well tended by Leszek, and it has attracted very positive feedback from people within the church.
