Bump & Beyond (formerly Bump to Birthday): support for mums and mums-to-be
A relaxed group on Fridays for mums-to-be and mums with babies not yet walking: offering support and an opportunity to make friends and to share experiences. Fun for babies with toys and activities. Drinks and biscuits. We meet in the church lounge (as Andy's is not open on Fridays) or sometimes in the A2 building if there is an event in the church. Optional donation. Free parking in the Waitrose car park.
Friday: 10am-11.30am

Messy Church
"Church, but not as you know it"! It can be messy, loud, colourful, competitive, creative, but it’s always great fun.
The event is free and all are welcome. The activities are aimed mainly for primary aged children but younger siblings and parents/carers will also enjoy the experience.
Bi-monthly, on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon:
Saturday 20th July 2024
Sunday 22nd September 2024
Saturday 30th November 2024

No booking necessary. We'd love to see you!
