  • When you arrive, a member of our welcomer team will greet you and give you a service sheet to follow along. Our typical service includes singing, bible reading, a short talk, communion, and time for personal reflection and prayer. After service, we head to the hall for warm drinks, sweet treats, and good conversation.

  • Communion is the remembrance of Jesus and the resurrection through bread and wine; we come together as a family.

    You will be invited to come forward to the communion rail. If you take communion, then please feel free to receive with us. If not, or you are unsure, then you can still join us to receive a blessing.

  • Don’t worry about being late- life happens. One of our welcomers will greet you at the door, give you a service sheet, and show you to a free seat.

  • You can sit wherever you like! If we are getting full, a member of the welcome team will help you to a free seat.

  • Yes, we have a children’s corner at the back of the church for little ones and also lead a children’s group called ‘Good News Club’ during service for 4-11 year olds. You can find more information on our children and families page.

  • We have accessible toilets, wheel chair access at the south porch, loop connectivity, and parking spaces.
