Christ Church Thornton is organising a coach which will leave at 8.30 am and return at 6 pm. The cost of the coach is £15/pp. There will be time for a bite of lunch after the service and a wander round the city in the afternoon. Why not grab a partner and put your names down at the back of church. It’s first come first served on the coach so do it this week or next!

Safeguarding Training: If you are a Sidesperson, Church sitter, Little Gang volunteer, Baptism welcomer or coffee morning host you are required under Church of England rules to undertake basic safeguarding training.

Invitations have been sent out but we are aware that some have been misplaced! If you are not able to attend this session you will be required to undertake the training on-line. Please speak to Janet or Chris Butler our new Parish Safeguarding Officer if you need any further information. Keep yourself and others SAFE.
