Sunday Morning Holy Communion

Every Sunday at for 1 hour
St Thomas and St John's church
St Thomas and St John's church, New Church Street, Radcliffe, M26 2UD

Morning Eucharist service with light refreshments afterwards with a friendly congregation. Our service follows the Church of England's Common Worship Service book with themes for different seasons. We hope that our worship is beautiful and easy to understand. We have an organist fortnightly (ish) and recorded music on other weeks. It's a chance for peace and prayer in a hectic world. Children and their noise are welcome.

Safeguarding

Our parish of Radcliffe: St Thomas & St John 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 of Manchester’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 [Ken Smith, 07950 709171] or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor [Abbey Clephane-Wilson, 0161 828 1465]. 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

Out of Hours Support
The Diocese of Manchester partners with thirtyone:eight and you can access their Safeguarding Helpline if the Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser is unavailable. Thirtyone:eight can be contacted on 0303 003 1111.
This also includes any safeguarding queries outside of office hours on weekdays and weekends. An Information Sharing Agreement between the two organisations will allow the Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser to receive a copy of the advice thirtyone:eight may offer the caller.
