Services and Groups for Children and Families
We offer a variety of events, activities and services for children and families. See below for the main activities and if you’d like to download our latest leaflet click here
Tots and Teddies
Every Wednesday from 10.30am - 12noon at St Julian’s Church
Pre-school fun with singing, stories, refreshments and lots of toys. A popular group, this gathering begins with a short and very informal service, songs and a story. The service is followed by creative activities and playtime. During the summer holidays Tots & Teddies is replaced by Summer Tots, and older siblings can come along too. Summer and Christmas parties and parents’ nights out are also arranged. A collection is taken during the service but refreshments are free (brought, on a rota by parents).
