The Friends of Kirkandrews are those who  wish to support the beautiful Church of St. Andrew, Kirkandrews-upon-Esk,  keeping  it at the heart of the community and preserving its  inheritance  of turbulent history, splendid architecture, wealth of records and the achievements of its many talented parishioners, for now and for future generations.

Churches face many challenges and Kirkandrews, in its beautiful but isolated parkland setting, is no exception. Friends live nearby, others holiday in the locality, whilst others visit only once. Some have family connections through baptisms or weddings whilst others have loved ones buried in the graveyard. But for all, Kirkandrews and its churchyard are special. The  Friends hope that with their help and support the Church’s fabric can be maintained; its facilities improved and the future secured. The Friends hold an annual event every year in support of Kirkandrews Church.

The Friends of Kirkandrews upon Esk Church is a registered charity.
