Raymond Landy, a 91-year-old French retiree, amazed the community of La Chapelle-sur-Aveyron with his generous donation of £750,000, inherited from his brother. This amount will allow for the restoration of the local church, essential for the identity of the village with only 640 inhabitants.
Raymond Landy explained that the church played an important role in his life, being the place where he was baptized and made his first communion. The village mayor, Christian Chevalier, emphasized the importance of the church as the "heart of the village." The donation will allow for the restoration work to be carried out in phases, with completion estimated in about a year, ensuring that the church will be in good condition for another 150 years.
