SPECIAL EVENTS

Throughout the year, we host a number of larger, special events that bring people together and mark key moments in the calendar.

These include occasions like Christmas, Easter, Remembrance Sunday, and Community Sundays – all great opportunities to come along, experience church life, and connect with others.

We also run regular monthly lunches, which are free and open to everyone. Why not come to one of our Sunday services and stay afterwards for lunch? It’s a relaxed and easy way to meet people and feel part of things.
