St. Michael and All Angels, Aldbourne is an active church in a busy community. We have strong links with our C of E primary school next door, where we offer Collective Worship, 'Share the Story', lunchtime clubs and have some of our church members as foundation governors.
We share with our friends in Aldbourne Methodist Church in reaching out in service to the community. We support the Swindon Food Collective with regular donations of food.
Several of our members are taking the lead in encouraging us to be more environmentally aware and active.
We are grateful to the 'Friends of St. Michael's Church Aldbourne' for raising money to help with us with maintaining our historic building.
Our parish of Whitton is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops' guidance and policies. Safeguarding concerns or questions can be directed to our Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO) OR any of our clergy:
