What is Friends of St Mary's?

Friends of St Mary's is a group of individuals who have come together to try and carve a future for of St Mary's Kirk. After the amalgamation of St Mary's & Old Parish Church, Trinity Church, Teviot Church and Roberton Church to Hawick South, the Church of Scotland unfortunately sustain all buildings. The objective of Friends of St Mary's is to find the best use for the building of St Mary's Kirk. A building that has a rich history of worship and is a beacon of Christianity within the town of Hawick.

Meeting held on 10th September

There was a meeting held on the 10th of September where townsfolk were invited to voice their opinions on the future, with suggestions such as that the building could find a new lease of life in community ownership. A steering group was created and we will continue to update you on the progress on our Friends of St Mary's website.
