We are the town centre church in Haslingden, part of the Church of England. Our building is, reputedly, the highest church above sea level in the country. We all have our claim to fame.

We are an open and inclusive community welcoming people from all backgrounds and experiences. Worship is at the heart of all we do and we would be delighted to welcome you to join us.
