Activities held there cover all ages from a Parent and Toddler Group to two Day Care Centres for the elderly; from Addiction Counselling for the youth of the town to the Child Contact Centre affording safe access to children of non-resident parents. As a church we are committed to continuing and extending our work for all sections of the community. Click a box below for more details...
