In 14 days time His Majesty King Charles will be crowned King at his Coronation at Westminster Abbey.

As a Parish we will be holding two Sunday Services to commemorate the occasion. The first will take place on 30th April at 10.30am, which is a joint service held at Holy Trinity South Murton with St Andrews Dalton-le-Dale. All are welcome to join with us. Then on Saturday the 6th May, the day of Coronation  we will joining with the Robin Todd Centre and the local school for a commemorative party. The start time is 12.00pm. 

The Bishop of Durham has said it will be a “huge honour and privilege” to play a prestigious role at the Coronation of King Charles III next month.

The Rt Revd Paul Butler will act as Bishop Assistant to the King, alongside the Rt Revd Michael Beasley, the Bishop of Bath and Wells at the Coronation, on Saturday 6 May.

The role of Bishop Assistant dates back hundreds of years – and the Bishop of Durham and the Bishop of Bath and Wells have assumed the duty since the coronation of Richard I.
