Important information about church services: Because of the current spread of coronavirus and the Government's Plan B measures, face coverings are now a requirement in church (unless you have an exemption). We have hand sanitiser available on arrival, and will introduce more social distancing measures for inside, and we encourage you to take a lateral flow test and get a negative result before attending.
