Townspeople and visitors attend services and take part in a wide range of activities including, : Study courses. Christian Aid Events, Guild Meetings, Youth Club, Children’s work, fun days, and fund raising and social events.
The Sunday service is at 11:00am, with Holy Communion being celebrated quarterly.
During the morning service there is a Crèche and Children’s Church for those up to the age of 14 years. Everyone joins in the initial worship at 11:00am and then the children and young people leave for their various groups.
