Children and Youth
We aim to make parents, children and young people welcome and provide for their needs.
During services:
- There is a space near the door where infants can be taken if needed. This is resourced with colourful books and other resources
- There is a Sunday School for older children on 1st, 3rd and 5th Sundays.
- On other Sundays the sermon is pitched with children being present throughout in mind.
Play and Praise
2nd Tuesday each month, between 2.00pm and 2.45pm. Service of songs, stories and prayer for babies and children up to school age with their carers. Followed by coffee, juice and biscuits.
Child Protection
All of our youth leaders have been CRB checked and we actively follow the Diocesan Taking Care Child Protection policies.
Any concerns can be discussed with a member of the clergy or the Parish Child Protection Officer - Esther Darley.
