Sunbeams is a group which meets twice monthly on Wednesdays for pre-school children and their carers. It offers an opportunity for the children to play, for refreshments to be had and for new friendships to develop. Towards the end of the morning, we share a bible story with the children.

The Men’s Group meets monthly throughout the year and is open to men across the benefice, whether they are involved with the church or not. The general pattern is to meet for a takeaway supper followed by a talk from either a member of the group or local speaker. Several times a year, ladies are invited to attend the meetings. These evenings are always a lot of fun.

Kettle’s On started several years ago.  Meeting on a Wednesday morning twice a month it is open to everyone and involves coffee, cake and chat.  It is popular and well attended, particularly by people who are retired.

Soup’s Up was a Warm Spaces initiative started in November 2022 to provide a twice-monthly simple hot meal, warmth and fellowship during the cold winter months. It proved so popular it has become an annual event and the home-made soups, bread and puddings are delicious. It meets at lunchtime on alternate Fridays during the winter months.

There are both Cub and Scout groups within the village, and the leaders and young people regularly take part in the Remembrance Day service at the war memorial, in addition to offering their gardening skills at our twice-yearly churchyard clear ups.
