CHILDREN AND YOUTH

Additional needs children are an important part of St John’s family. St John’s believes that all children are created by God and so valued equally. Our aim is to create an environment where every child feels safe, loved and provided with an opportunity to encounter God.

With this in mind, we look to provide activities that all children and youth are able to access, In order for us to do this we have a trained team of volunteers ready to assist and be deployed as 1:1 support.

If you are able, it would be great if you could let us know you are planning on attending so we can speak with you to learn your child’s individual needs to helps prepare the best support for them.

SUNDAY WORSHIP

We consider our worship to be lively and so it can, at times, be considered as fairly loud. We appreciate that this is not always easy and that some people can be extra sensitive to the volume for many reasons. We provide ear defenders, and ear plugs in accessibility box by the sound desk in the main hall.

Our sound loop in the main worship hall is Sound Loop. If you require any more information about our facilities for hearing impairments please do get in touch with us.

If you require us to alter the format of any of our church’s literature (ie. larger print) please contact the office and we would be happy to arrange this.
