A Dundee parish is the first in the city to be recognised for its efforts to protect the environment. St Ninian’s Roman Catholic Church in Menzieshill has won a coveted Silver Award from Eco Congregation Scotland, a Christian environmental charity which addresses issues around climate change.
Among changes parishioners have made to limit their carbon footprint is to install a new state-of-the-art, eco-friendly heat pump system to heat both the church and the hall.
Our picture shows Canon Kevin Golden, Adminstrator of the Diocese of Dunkeld, who presented the award to Margret MacPhail, who accepted it on behalf of her fellow parishioners.
