Rugby Ball Smashes £18K Window at Historic Hull Minster

Repairs are underway at Hull Minster following a community fundraising effort that secured £18,000. These funds are designated for the restoration of the church's west window, which sustained damage from a rugby ball. The incident occurred earlier this year when the ball was reportedly kicked with considerable height into the church.

The successful fundraising initiative also covers necessary repairs for the east window. This section of the church had previously been vandalized with air rifle pellets. Heritage project manager James Cameron expressed gratitude for the overwhelming generosity shown by the community and congregation.
