The Clergy and Wardens have, following guidance from the Archbishops of Canterbury and York,  had to make the difficult decision to suspend public acts of worship in the Parish.  This is the first time since 1208 that a decision such as this has been made, so please bear with us as we all seek to find a new way to 'be' church for this time.

We hope to be able to livestream a short Eucharist via Zoom and on our Facebook page, with a recording of the services uploaded to our Youtube channel.

In the meantime, you may also wish to use the below resources.  If you know of anyone who does not have a computer but would appreciate these, please do print them off and give them to them.
