The Beacon Parish is delighted to welcome children and teenagers. We have special child-friendly Services where part way through the service we run a separate session for the children. We have four main groups for our young people:

 

Little Beacons - for younger children held during the St Margaret's Church Sunday services. Little Beacons takes place on the first and second Sundays of the month.

 

Youth Courses - first communion and confirmation classes for 11yrs plus - please ask

 

YODAH Schools - for children in School Year Groups 4, 5 & 6 at St Margaret's Primary School every Wednesday between 15:15 and 16:15 during term time
