There are plans in hand to build on a toilet, but at the moment the nearest available public toilet is in the village car park. This is up the hill past the village hall, then turn left.
There is parking available in the village car park, which is up past the village hall and turn left.
The village defibrillator is on the wall of the public lavatory in the village car park. (Up the hill, past the village hall and turn left.)
We have a movable ramp which can be put in place for wheelchair users.

Our Building
We have a beautiful new window, the Partridge window, in the Lady Chapel. It was installed as a result of a bequest from the late Phyllis Partridge MBE, whose family were long-time residents of Lapford. This is a modern window, designed and installed by Andrew Johnson. We also have some older, very colourful stained glass windows which have recently been specialist cleaned thanks to the Friends of St Thomas..
During Summer Time the church is open every day from 9.00 a.m. until 6.00 p.m.
During 'Winter Time' it is only open on Saturdays and Sundays, 9.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m. or dusk, whichever is the earlier.
Outside these times please contact the Churchwarden

Music and Worship
We have a very friendly team of bell-ringers who are always looking for recruits!
We are very fortunate to have a regular organist who lives in the village. If he is not available we have an electronic hymnal to supply our music, with or without extra voices.
Our BCP Holy Communion services are on Second Wednesdays at 10.30am
