An Eco Church
Homelands Church is proud to be registered with A Rocha as an Eco Church, and has gained their silver award. If you want to know more about the A Rocha organisation, and the awards it gives, click here.
Some of the projects our church is involved in, so as to be more environmentally aware and good custodians of God's created world, are:
- active participation in Tendring Primary School Recycling Scheme by providing drop-off facilities at the church for a wide range of materials;
- small strip of land to the road side of the church managed as a wild flower area;
- roof-top weather station to enable a more accurate measure of the weather situation locally;
- Fairtrade tea and coffee used in church catering;
