1) The Choir

No one who visits St Stephen's & West, even occasionally, could fail to be | impressed by the quality of music that enhances our services. Sunday after Sunday, come rain, snow, even (rarely) sunshine, the dedicated members of the choir can be relied on to provide a polished performance of the highest order.
Don't take them for granted. Maintaining | this standard entails constant rehearsals, under the exacting supervision of organist and choirmaster Alex Perry. We owe all of them a sincere vote of thanks.

2) BROUGHTY FERRY BENEVOLENT TRUST

The Trust was formed in the sixtieth year of Queen Victoria's reign with the purpose of providing financial support to people residing within the boundaries of Broughty Ferry. Those were and are persons in distress due to bereavement, redundancy, illness or other such cause worthy of consideration by the Trustees.
The Trustees are appointed by local churches together with two representatives from Dundee City Council, with board meetings being held every six months.
It has been the custom of the Trust to make regular six-monthly payments to the beneficiaries amounting to several hundred pounds, and this will continue in the future.
The Trustees, however, have decided, in view of the financial hardship that is being faced by an increasing number of families, that one-off payments should now be considered.
Those payments will in all likelihood be fairly modest but could make a difference to people facing short term financial hardship. The residential regulations will continue to apply, ie, only to assist those residing within the Broughty Ferry area.
Referrals to the Trust will continue to come from the local churches but the Trustees are willing to consider referrals from other agencies in Broughty Ferry who provide advice to struggling families.
