We are an independent congregation within the Thames North Synod of the United Reformed Church. Formed in 1972 from the union of the Congregational Church in England and Wales and the Presbyterian Church of England, the URC is an ecumenical and intercultural church with nearly 1,500 local churches spread throughout the United Kingdom. We also contribute to the Joint Public Issues Team, a social justice partnership between the Baptist Union of Great Britain, the Methodist Church, and the United Reformed Church.
We are members of Citizens UK, joining the nation’s largest people-powered alliance to build relationships and a better, fairer society. Though many of our membership are not native to the UK, our faith inspires us to work change that brings justice to everyone here in our native or adopted home.
We are committed to being an honest church, clearly stating that we work to include women and LGBTQ+ people in every aspect of church life, encouraging our entire membership to participate in worship and leadership without discrimination. Ask us about our inclusion, and we’ll give you an honest answer.
We are registered with Welcome Churches, a network of churches around the UK who are committed to welcoming refugees. The Welcome Network connects refugees to local church communities.
