St James the Great is a friendly, liberal and inclusive Church that welcomes everyone. We follow the seasonal and sacramental traditions of the Church of England and encourage preaching that is solidly linked to real life experiences.

We have a strong musical tradition with a well trained, robed choir made up of men, women and young people. The choir is open to anyone who enjoys singing and wants solid musical training and we are also part of the RSCM 'Voice for Life' Programme. We even have a regular band of bell ringers who train other ringers.

The Church is regularly used as a concert venue.
