News from the Annual Parish Church Meeting held on 10th May 2026.

After more than thirty years as Church Warden, Gary Margerrison has called time and has stepped down from this office and as Church Treasurer. We are very grateful to him for all he has done for the church over the years.

At the meeting, the following people were elected to serve on the Parochial Church Council (PCC) – Pat Barnes, Jayne Mansfield, Hazel Salt, and David Edwards.

The church officers for 2026/7 are:

Church Warden                Vacant

Treasurer                           Vacant

Vice-Chair                         Pat Barnes

Electoral Roll Officer         Pat Barnes

PCC Secretary                   David Edwards

Safeguarding Officer        Rev Alan Winfield

Damaged graves

We have applied for a Faculty (rather like planning permission but granted by the Diocese of Derby) to remove conifers that are damaging two family graves in the churchyard. The notice about this is displayed on both the main gates to the churchyard and on the church door.
