The very latest!

​​

Work on the final stage of fitting out the Lantern Centre will begin again tomorrow (19th October 2026) and before long the floorboards you have sponsored will be available to sign. It is not too late to ask all your friends to sponsor further floorboards. There are lots to sign!  

​​

Work is complete on the lower part of the building where the toilets and a small office/meeting room are located. It was estimated that the works would continue between the months of March and June 2026, costing roughly £100k, the fruits of our fundraising over the last 12 months. It has taken a little longer than hoped but we can at last give thanks that the necessary funds have been secured. 

​

The main hall floor is to be made up of oak strips. Perhaps you might still like to sponsor and sign a floorboard at £25 a length?

​

The Lantern Community Centre in the churchyard of St Mary the Virgin Church is an asset that belongs to the parishioners of Stone already. A venue for gatherings in the shadow of Stone's magnificent parish church, enabling its wider community use.
