Welcome

St Andrew’s is a thriving, open and welcoming church community for all ages. 

We seek to be a nurturing, cherishing and restoring community of Christians – among people we are with, around places where we live, and within the building, churchyard and Creation we have been gifted and will pass on to future generations.

Our church building is usually open from 9.15am to 4pm daily. Our regular times of worship on Sundays are 8am and 10am, with a monthly evening service at 5.30pm. All are welcome!
