Welcome to All Saints', Okehampton Parish Church. We are an affirming, inclusive congregation. Known locally as 'the church on the hill', a church building has stood on the hill above Okehampton for at least 1,000 years. People love to come and spend time here - the walk is definitely worth it, but there is also a decent car park here. Church services are usually 11am every Sunday, and are livestreamed. There is a children's soft play area and Sunday school available, but children are welcome to remain in the main congregation and we are happy to hear them joining in! We have a wheelchair accessible toilet, and ramped access into the church. All Saints' also has a hall, which is in the town (Market Street, next to Co-op Car Park) and we have Café Church there on the first Sunday of each month, and Brick Church at 4pm usually on the last Saturday of each month.
Our Parish is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises 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 Mrs Alex Just, on 07887941860 or [email protected]. Or you can contact the Exeter Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor at the link below. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
