Everyone is welcome to our services, and we are always delighted to see newcomers in any of our churches. We welcome members of other Christian churches to receive Holy Communion or, if you feel more comfortable, please come forward with the rest of the congregation to receive a blessing.
If you are unable to get to church, members of Church at Castle will visit you at home, and the Ministry Team will gladly arrange for Communion to be given at home to anyone who wishes it.

This monthly working party meets at the Burial Ground (off Huntingdon Road) to enjoy some healthy outdoor exercise and help keep the vegetation under control while preserving and developing the cemetery as a haven for wild-life. Volunteers are very welcome – you can do as much or as little as you wish – all help is greatly appreciated. All volunteers are reminded that they should dress appropriately for work in the burial ground and take care for their own safety and that of others working. In particular, you should wear sturdy footwear since the ground is uneven and gravestones are overgrown. Please also bring your own gloves. Secateurs and loppers are very desirable if you have them but tools will also be provided. It can be thirsty work, so do bring a drink as well.
