We are a growing church with a wide age range including many young families.There is a large Sunday school and all the uniformed organisations have groups which meet in our church hall.They are encouraged to take an active part in church life and many of the leaders and helpers are church members. We have choir and organist for Sunday service which on the first sunday of each month is Parade and All Age Worship.
There is a close practical working relationship with Benjamin Hargreaves Voluntary Aided C of E Primary School which is just across the road from the church. We share each other's facilities and have joint social and fund raising events.The church manages an Out of School Club mainly but not exclusively for the school. This meets in our church hall.
During the last 5 or 6 years we have been very active in encouraging people into church through a variety of worship and social events. The result has been a steady increase in regular church attendance and an increasing need for extra facilities.
Building work is now in progress to extend the church hall which has become too small to accommodate all the events and activities which now take place. The work should be completed by October 2009.
