We want everyone to feel welcome and comfortable when they visit us.\u00a0 As you enter the churches for services, there are welcomers (sometimes called sidespeople) at the door to greet you and make sure you have everything you need.\u00a0 Please tell them if you would like any additional help during the service, or would appreciate assistance to find somewhere to sit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Both of our buildings (St. James\u2019s church, St. Hilda’s church) are fully accessible, with gently sloped entrance ramps suitable for wheelchairs, buggies, prams, and the less mobile.\u00a0 (Christ Church) has disabled ramps that can quickly be put in place – please let us know if you would require them. All of our buildings are ground-floor only, and all have hearing loops.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Service booklets are available in large print versions: just ask one of the welcomers as you come into church.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
At all churches, there are small steps leading up to the chancel (the part right at the front of the Church where the choir sat and the altar is positioned).\u00a0 If you would like someone to accompany you up the steps when you go for Communion, please ask.\u00a0 Alternatively, if you would like to take Communion as you sit in your seat, the celebrant will come to you.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
