The services at St Nicholas are designed to be visitor friendly, so we regularly explain what we're doing at points during the service, and why we're doing it. You don't have to know anything before you visit, or bring anything. The services mostly contain a mixture of songs, a reading or two from the Bible, prayers and a short talk on a passage from the Bible. The service also contains a confession and creed (statement of beliefs), which you are welcome to join in with as you wish. The evening service is slightly less formal as well as being smaller in terms of the number of people who come. See the What to Expect on Sundays page for more info.

We don't take collections during the service. We don’t expect visitors to give to the work of St Nicholas; church family members can click here for information on giving.

Take a look at this page for what happens for children and babies on Sundays.

We take the safeguarding of both children and adults very seriously. Every group leader has been through a DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check at enhanced level and attends annual training. For more information on our Safeguarding policy, please contact Claire Tagg (who is in charge of Safeguarding at St Nicholas) through the Church Office

We take Health & Safety seriously at St Nicholas and have developed a church-specific policy in order that people and things in our community are kept as safe as possible. Please get in touch with our Health & Safety officers, through the Church Office, if you have any questions or comments.
