As well as Sunday Service the church offers a range of other activities for adults/ children.
A warm welcome is extended to everyone who wishes to come along for worship or other activities/events that take place throughout the year.

Warrior was a Real War Horse, foaled on the Isle of Wight in 1908. In 1914 Warrior went to war on the Western Front with Winston Churchill’s great friend, General Jack Seely. There he survived all imaginable disasters and was active in many famous battles including those at the Somme and Ypres. On the battlefields of the First World War, he showed death-defying bravery and inspired thousands of soldiers. He returned home four years later.
Eight million other horses and mules did not survive.
Returning with Jack Seely to his native Isle of Wight in 1918, Warrior lived on until the grand old age of 33, even winning a point to point four years to the day that he had led the charge at Moreuil Wood.
Warrior was posthumously awarded the highest medal for animal gallantry. His obituary in the Evening Standard in 1941 described him as the ‘Horse the Germans Could Not Kill’
