FAQs

Do you collect money during the service?

Yes, there is a formal collection during the service, this could be for cash, the green Gift Aid envelopes or the PGS tokens (see below). There is also a collection plate at the back of the church building where some like to leave a donation upon leaving after the service. There is also a contactless machine. Most of our regulars, however, give via Standing Order, or preferrably via the Parish Giving Scheme (PGS). More can be found out about this on 'Our Giving' page.

Is there a dress code?

No, there is no dress code. Please come as you feel comfortable. Having said that, as a rule of thumb, at the 10am most people will be smart-casual.

Can I park at the church?

The church car park is shared with St Patrick’s Primary Academy, 100 metres to the south of church near the canal bridge. On a Sunday there is normally plenty of space available. During term time, additional parking is along the road. There are two disabled spaces just between church and school.

Will I be asked to do anything?

Only if you want to. Do not worry about being asked to do anything that might make you feel uncomfortable. Usually, once a person has been attending church for a while, they decide that they would like to Help in some way. Only then do we ask if they would like to help serve refreshments, read, or pray during the service, or be involved in a million and one other ways. If you'd like to help the church in some way, please contact the wardens.
