The Mothers’ Union is open to women and men who seek to support the aims of the world-wide Mothers' Union: to strengthen Christian marriage and family life.

Our branch meets on the third Wednesday of every month at 10.30 at Saint Laurence’s Church for worship, a talk and a light lunch. On the first Thursday of every month, we meet at 10.00 at Saint Laurence’s for a corporate communion service. For details of our quarterly evening meeting, visit our Church diary. Newcomers are always welcome.

There is a regular Evening Group which meets on the first Tuesday of alternate months at St Laurence for worship, talk and a light supper. For further details visit our Church diary. To post a prayer for the Mothers’ Union prayer meeting, please phone Sylvia Jewell (see below).
