Messy Church is church like no other.
It’s relaxed church for families of all shapes and sizes…and everyone’s welcome. Just come along.

Music is a key part of Priory worship and we’re keen to involve youngsters in our music-making activities. It’s a great way to meet new people make new friends and learn some new skills.
Listening, working as a team, our Junior Choristers sing their hearts out in services and concerts and enjoy the annual Choir Camp.
Instrumentalists are welcome to join the all-age Orchestra.
Organ Scholarships are available for young organists.
