St Cassian’s (DY10 4SD), St Cecilia’s (DY10 1LP), St Chad’s (DY10 3AY), St George’s (DY10 2ES) and St Mary's Stone (DY10 4BE). From 1.1.2024 St Cassian's is working with the new grouping of Belbroughton and Fairfield.
St Chad’s is a lively and varied group of people gathered from the local Comberton and Offmore communities, and further afield. We seek to be a caring, welcoming and relevant church, aiming to learn more about Jesus and show His love to all. The building is non-listed and situated in Burcher Green, Kidderminster. The original church (now the Church Hall), was built in 1956, as a daughter church of St. George’s in Kidderminster. At the rear of the church there is a grass area, which belongs to the church, often used for United Services and other events when the weather permits.
The Parish of Kidderminster East is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO) and Church Safeguarding Representatives.
The Diocese of Worcester safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Team (DST), who advise our PSO.
If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO or DST. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, report the matter to the Local Authority Social Care Services or the Police without delay.
