We aim to be a Church that is as open and welcoming to our local community as possible. We don’t want to be a Church where the doors are always closed except for a few hours on a Sunday morning. We have been blessed with a fantastic suite of buildings here at St Andrew’s, and we want them to benefit our town as much as possible. One expression of this is our commitment to building a brand new community hall, which we hope will be a valuable resource to the local community. We are committed to working with our local partners in the area, whether faith-based or secular.
