Monthly Meetings
In our monthly meetings, where we are limited to a maximum of 130 attendees, we use both the church and the adjoining hall. We gather in the hall until the doors through to the church open at 1.30pm. Our guest speakers then present their talks in the church itself. During this time, the doors to the hall will be kept locked. Afterwards, we enjoy a cup of tea and a biscuit back in the hall. We have a limited number of parking spaces for blue badge holders in the church car park.
