St Mary the Virgin, Trawden

Welcome to St Mary’s, Trawden, your Community Church. We are a happy, friendly Church, offering people of all ages and backgrounds the opportunity to meet with, learn more about and worship God together. St Mary’s has a rich history celebrating traditional Church festivals and events as well as the privilege of sharing with local families in baptisms, weddings and funerals. Everyone is very welcome. It will be lovely to see you.

There are normally services on Sunday mornings at 09:30.  There are also Sunday services at our sister churches Christ Church Colne (normally 11:00), and St Michael's Foulridge (normally 09:30).

Three Sundays a month there will be a communion service with music and hymns.  Once a month there is an All Age Service often led by members of the Church and the Music Group.

Our Rector is the Rev Canon Andy Froud.  Andy. also serves our sister churches of Christ Church and St Michael's Foulridge.  Andy is helped by the Rev David Hargreaves who is our Associate Priest.

Please note that from the first Sunday in January 2026 until the Sunday before Palm Sunday 22nd March, our Sunday services will be held at Trawden Community Centre still at 9.30am.  Church will still be open on Thursdays and be used for funerals and any other larger services.

Safeguarding

Our Parish Safeguarding Officer is Paul Wilson and can be contacted on 07950 316879 or [email protected].

Promoting a Safer Church
St Mary's have adopted the House of Bishops ‘Promoting a Safer Church’ policy and the Parish Safeguarding Handbook, incorporating the House of Bishop’s Safeguarding Policy and Practice Guidance. A copy of this, and all the information below can be found here: cofe-policy-statement.pdf (churchofengland.org)

We also display the Promoting a Safer Church poster prominently within our church. This is on the Church noticeboard along with relevant phone numbers and contact details.

All those working with children and adults at risk have undergone safer recruitment and received safeguarding training.

If you believe that someone is at risk of immediate harm please call emergency services on 999.
Any safeguarding concerns in a parish should be brought to the attention of your local Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO) in the first instance.

The PSO can seek further advice from the Diocesan Safeguarding Team as necessary.
