Youth Club at Cornerstone December 2021 saw the end of a six-year project to secure the future of All Saints church in Lymington. Services in the church ceased in 2013, but Lymington Parochial Church Council (PCC) were determined that this lovely building should not stand idle but should continue to be used for the bene t of the community. e solution was for the PCC to retain the Chancel of the church for occasional Christian worship and to lease the Nave, Hall and grounds to a nursery and pre- school provider. In 2015, a tender exercise was carried out and Tops Day Nurseries were selected. ere then followed a lengthy period of consultation and discussion with the Church Commissioners, the Diocese of Winchester and the NFDC Planning and Conservation departments about the changes needed to enable this historic building to be used in this way. In October 2020, planning permission was nally granted and this year has seen a new under oor heating system, together with low and high temperature radiators being installed; new toilets built for the children, the whole building redecorated and new LED lights tted. Outside, an acoustic fence has been built around the play area and new hedges planted. It was therefore with a huge sense of achievement that the PCC and Tops Day Nurseries arranged for the Mayor of Lymington & Pennington, Cllr James Hoare to come and re-open the buildings. 70 guests, including two former mayors, were present as he, the Vicar of Lymington the Reverend Canon Peter Salisbury, and the managing Director of Tops, Cheryl Hadland, proudly watched two pre-school children undo a ribbon at the door to declare the buildings open. Following the reopening the nursery is now ready for the next cohort of children to bene t from the All Saints Church, Lymington Has Re-Opened opportunities Tops Lymington can o er and therefore, there is also the opportunity for new colleagues to join the team.
