At the back of the church there were improvised kitchen units housing a sink linked to an outdoor tap. This is being replaced by modern kitchen and toilet facilites hidden behind oak panelled units, alongside the beautiful open central space with flexible seating. This will make the building suitable and welcoming for both young and old.
Once complete we will continue running our Tots & Toddlers group, Craft Groups, Messy Church, and so much more across all age groups.
