Depending upon the season of the year, extra services are also held, including -

• 'Tidings of comfort & joy' - a quiet service of reflection held close to the longest night of the year: recognising that, while Christmas is a time of joy, there is also a shadow side.  In amidst the tinsel, glitter, and lights, find space to remember loved ones lost, or put in God's hands difficult life situations. Usually held 2pm, on the second Sat of Dec.
