Social Activities
Class Act
Class Act is a vibrant mixed youth and adult drama group which produces high quality musicals and some events/entertainment in church. Apart from providing pleasure to its members and audiences there is a spirit of co-operation between individuals and families, fostering a sense of belonging in the parish.
Social Committee
Fundraising: the committee is made up of 5 parishioners with the primary objective of generating money for the building fund through a series of social events. These have, in the past, included an auction of promises, a jazz/broadway/baroque music evening as well as sponsored walks and raffles.
Outings: The parish has an annual fun outing; in the past this has been Bournemouth and Alton Towers, but has in more recent years been to Euro Disney in Paris, Dublin and in 2007 Rome.
