 As close to St Patrick’s Day as we could get! There will be a traditional Bacon & Cabbage dinner. We shall be having a licensed bar. Irish Coffees will be available at the bar. Music will be provided by Trixon Sound, and there will be dancing too!
A few people have been working very hard in the background to make this event happen. Please do give the occasion your support. Doors at St. Bart's will be open from 19:00 with dinner at 19:30. Entry will be by ticket only at just £20.00, with tickets now available from the Parish Office. A big thank you for all your support this year with the Crisis appeals.
The 44 shoe boxes were fantastic! Today your generosity has been exceptional. We have raised £460 from the raffle and coffee morning. This money has helped house 22 people over the Christmas period and also can help get them get a chance to work towards ending their homelessness by advice and training. Your support for the projects that Bart Seniors embark on is amazing. We would like to wish you all a lovely Christmas and a healthy and happy New Year. The Bart Seniors Team x  Details of the 2020 Confirmation Programme at St. Bartholomew's are now available on our Website; click on the image above.

Accessibility - St. Bartholomew's does its utmost to accommodate those with additional needs. Whilst the main body of the church is wholly accessible to people with mobility disabilities, the choir gallery is both approached by stairs and the seating is then stepped by design. The church has a wheelchair-accessible toilet, and baby-changing facilities. There is a Loop System (AFIL) in place in the church.
