Aspire Linlithgow


St Michael’s established its major projects fundraising campaign, Aspire Linlithgow, in 2022. We’re nothing if not ambitious: having successfully raised nearly £400k from grants and donations to refurbish St Michael’s unique Crown of Thorns spire, we are now embarking on not one but two major new fundraising campaigns.

We are extremely grateful to the community and the church for so magnificently supporting the Crown of Thorns campaign. We are also very thankful to our grant funders: Historic Environment Scotland, Church of Scotland General Trustees, Scottish Landfill Communities Fund and the Pilgrim Trust.

You can help us attract major grant funding for our new campaigns by demonstrating that our aspirations to transform Cross House and to safeguard the church building have widespread support. 

Next Event: Murder Mystery NightWhodunit?! 


Join us in the Linlithgow Rose Social Club on Friday 25th October at 7pm for an evening of light-hearted sleuthing as you, the audience, compete to solve Edinburgh Theatre Arts’ acclaimed murder mystery play. All profits from the evening go to Aspire Linlithgow’s A House for the Town campaign to transform Cross House into a place of welcome for all and a gateway to Linlithgow’s unique heritage. Tickets £17.50 from Eventbrite (plus booking fee) or in Far From book shop (cash only).

All profits go to Aspire Linlithgow’s A House for the Town campaign.
