Parish of Cheam

The Parish of Cheam dates back to Saxon times, since when there has been a church on the site of St Dunstan’s. The churches of St Alban’s and St Oswald’s were built in the first half of the twentieth century to serve the rapid growth of housing and population in the local area.

We build on the long traditions of Christian worship and service in the Church of England. We aim to provide a warm and inclusive welcome to all, opportunities to learn and ask questions wherever you are on your journey of faith, and care and support to all who need it.
