The Parish News magazine is published ten times a year – monthly, but with one edition for July and August and one for December and January. It contains information for reference, as well as articles of general interest relating to the church, the parish and the wider environment. Regular content includes:
- Service details
- Contact information
- Letter from the Vicar
- Poetry
- Notices
- Local articles
- Children’s page
- Prayer page
The editors welcome submissions for consideration for inclusion in the next available edition, the earlier in the month the better. The Parish News editorial team (Helene Hockings, Nick Murray and Mike Walsham) can all be contacted at:

Parish-News-April-2024-rpStop Press: Lent Lunches 2024
Thank you to all who supported Lent Lunches this year. A special thank you to all those who made and served delicious soups, and to all those who came. Attendance was varied and disappointing for those who had made gallons when attendance was low. This year we increased the price to £7.00 as bread and cheese have become very expensive. Takings this year after expenses were £662.20. We have not yet decided where to send this, but you can rest assured it will go to a worthy cause.
Thank you to all those who came and supported the Lunch. It is always a nice occasion and there have been some new faces this year.
