ST JOHN'S TODDLER GROUP

Every Tuesday's and Thursday's 9.30am to 11.15pm in the coffee lounge

We’re delighted to welcome little ones and their grown-ups to our friendly church toddler group!

Join us for a relaxed time of fun and friendship, with craft activities, rhyme time, stories and action songs linked to the season and plenty of toys.

Grown-ups can also enjoy tea or coffee and a friendly chat, making it a lovely space for everyone.

For everyone’s safety and comfort, spaces are limited (maximum of 18 children with carer in each session), so please make sure to contact Jo Hill via 07719489742, our group leader, in advance to secure your place.

There is a small donation fee £2 in cash, which goes towards church funds and helps us continue running the group and providing activities.

We look forward to seeing you and your little ones soon!

The Restore Project brings together essential restoration work with a wider vision for the church’s future — safeguarding the fabric of the building and strengthening how we serve our growing community.

By repairing stonework, renewing roofs and making the building watertight, we secure St John’s not just as a landmark, but as a thriving place for worship, welcome, outreach and shared life.

Our church needs urgent repairs and estimated cost of the works is £450,000.
We need your help!
