We provide regular opportunities for Christian worship and learning, as well as support and fellowship for people of all ages.  An important part of our work is serving the local community. We have two suites of halls which are used not only for church activities but are also made available to community groups, organisations and local people for a wide range of social, educational, recreational and community activities.
