As the Star reports,
A number of groups use the church's popular facilities, including a softball club, St Helens Youth Service, a junior rugby club and crime prevention organisations.
Rev Tom Thomas, vicar at St David's said: "We are very grateful to Candis for providing this money as it is a major step forward in our fund-raising efforts to improve our church building. Lots of people will benefit from better kitchen facilities."
The editor of Candis, Debbie Attewell added: "This venue fulfils a vital role in helping to bring people from a large community together and we are really pleased to help with the refurbishment programme."
So here at Moss Bank Labour Party, we're sure you'll join us in saying a big thank you on behalf of the whole community not only to Candis magazine, but also to Doreen Dixon whose work in nominating the church for a cash award should not go unacknowledged.
