Time on your hands? Need a friendly face to chat to? Looking for support? Then come to Wednesday Women!

The drop-in aims to provide friendship and support to women from the local community within a safe and caring environment. Our desire is to create a group where all who come experience God’s love, security and care.

Coffee, tea, and biscuits are available throughout the morning. Craft activities, jigsaws, scrabble and nail painting are all a regular feature at Wednesday Women but most importantly you can just come and have a blether and a cuppa. There is a suggested donation of £1 to cover costs however this is entirely voluntary.

The drop-in is run by a small group of committed volunteers from the church. If you’d like more information on Wednesday Women then please contact the church office. Alternatively you can just drop in on a Wednesday between 10:30 – 12:00. Looking forward to seeing you then!

Christianity Explored is an informal and relaxed seven-week course. It's for anyone who wants to think about the meaning of life. It's run by ordinary people and is completely free. You don't need to know anything about the Bible and you won't be asked to pray or sing. You can ask any question you like or you can just sit and listen.

Our next course begins in due time.

We are currently fundraising to make this happen as we believe it will be a real blessing to many in the neighbourhood around the church building.

Videos, quizzes, cakes, stories, music, coffee, tea and hot chocolate, all in a relaxed atmosphere. Cafe Church is for all ages and includes a kid’s zone.

At Cafe Church we come together in a fun, friendly, cafe style format to listen to music, chat and eat cake. On the last Sunday of the month we serve tea, coffee, hot chocolate and cakes from 2.30pm to 4.00pm in the church hall.  Discussion starters, quizzes, interviews, story-telling, video clips and a short talk are all part of Cafe Church and there is plenty of opportunity to talk round the tables and make new friends.

If you want to get more information about what goes on in church or you’d like to get some prayer then Cafe Church is a good place to start.  Why not take a look and join in? There will be a welcome for everyone.

Children accompanied by adults are welcome too and there is a small play area for younger children.
