Although the building may be closed, the church is still open. It’s just that we have moved our services online and until the situation is clearer we will continue with our services online. Please watch this space for further information regarding our services. Our services can be accessed via the latest posts.

We will be running our Lent course online as well this year, starting on the 16th February at 19:30. See the notice about our Lent course for more details.
See also the Cloth of Kindness event which starts locally on the 8th of January 2021. This is a community-led textile art project that bring the community together to embroider their thoughts and experiences of kindness on individual patches which are then stitched together.
