Welcome
A warm welcome to St. Matthew's - a church that is both Anglican and
Methodist at the same time.
At St. Matthew's you will find a variety of worship reflecting the different
traditions from which we are gathered. All of them are based on
our belief that God is highly relevant to the modern world.
We seek to be open to new ways of experiencing faith
and understanding the Bible.
If you are looking for a church which is not dogmatic, rigid or
judgmental and which accepts people as they are, you are likely
to feel at home with us.
Safeguarding
St Matthew's is committed to the Safeguarding of Young People and
Vulnerable Adults. The Ecumenical Church Council has based its policy
on the Church of England's policies and best practice on Safeguarding.
St Matthew's policy is updated annually.
The Parish Designated Safeguarding Officer is Mrs. Jennifer Normanton,
whose contact details can be found on our Safeguarding Page.
