St John’s is located in the former mining village of Abram close to Platt Bridge and is also known as Abram Parish Church. It is growing, with an increasing diversity in its membership, an openness to new ideas and joy in worship. It has an excellent relationship with St Johns CE primary school hosting services throughout the year and a bustling community café for Breakfast on Wednesday morning.
St John, Abram takes its duty and obligation to protect all extremely seriously. We have adopted the national Church of England's robust procedures and guidelines.
