The FAB Parishes - Finningley, Auckley, Blaxton

We are the FAB parishes – made up of three villages: Finningley, Auckley and Blaxton, and two churches: Holy Trinity and St Oswald, in Finningley and St Saviour in Auckley.

We are friendly and welcoming to all and this is perhaps represented in the diversity of our congregations. Each church has a mix of ages from babies in their ‘noughties’ to the more mature in their nineties, and each has singles, couples and families.

We enjoy a mix of service styles, from the more traditional Holy Communion service, right through to those with a contemporary feel and Cafe Church.

We have a good sense of humour, as does our Rector Neil, and have joy in our faith and our fellowship.

Safeguarding

Our Parish is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO Mr David Elvin, tel: 07851 737616 email: [email protected] or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor via the link below. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
