Facilities Hire

Our churches and two halls and lounge are available for hire. All buildings are used by local groups, services and other events, so please check our calendar for availability.

Enquiries about bookings of any of our facilities should be made to the Parish Office, whereby availability can be confirmed and the hire terms and conditions provided. Rates are reviewed annually and advanced bookings will be charged at the rate applicable at the time of hire, rather than the booking.
