Messy Cafe!

Messy Café returns to St George's Church - and you’re invited!

Pop into the session anytime for a fun, relaxed space filled with creativity, chatter, and plenty of cake! Whether you love crafts, colouring, or just a good cuppa and a catch-up, there’s something for everyone.

It’s perfect for families, friends, and anyone who doesn’t mind a little mess and a lot of laughter. The cost is £3 per child to cover the cost of materials, and you can either book in advance to secure your place, or pay on the day. If the cost would make it difficult for your family to come, please get in touch with the church. They'd much rather have you there than let cost be a barrier.

Meet in the Parish Centre, next to the church.
