Visit us

We usually meet every Sunday at 11.00am in church for either Holy Communion or Morning Worship. Everybody is welcome.

What to expect

Your first visit

Our Sunday morning services have crafts for children, and are followed by free tea / coffee and biscuits. We have modern toilet and baby change facilities, and there is no ‘dress code’. We have a new heating system, so you can be assured of a warm welcome, whatever the weather!

It’s usually possible to park on Melton Road in front of the church on Sunday mornings. If you would like to know what is happening on a particular day, the full calendar of services and events is kept up to date on A Church Near You.

During our vacancy. We are currently in vacancy. We’re grateful to our lay ministers and visiting clergy who enable our services to continue. Holy Communion is usually led by a visiting clergyperson.
