St Helen's Northwich

Welcome to St Helen’s Northwich.

We’re a congregation striving to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ in our individual and corporate lives and also to play an active role in our local community.

We aspire to “Serve Christ and Serve the Community”

St Helen's has been at the heart of the community of Northwich for 650 years and we continue to strive to live out Christ’s love for our neighbours.

We welcome everyone regardless of age or background; whether you’re a regular visitor or not; whether you have a strong faith, or are just exploring; whether you’re on your own or with others; whether you want to come to chat, or just sit quietly.

We’re blessed with a beautiful building, that dates back to the 14th Century, where thousands of people have been baptised, married and had their funerals. We use our building beyond its original purpose as a worship space to be a place to offer hospitality and to hold social events that both serve the church and the community.

St Helen’s takes its duty and obligation to protect all extremely seriously. We have adopted the national Church of England's robust procedures and guidelines.
