Get Involved
The Green Team
The Green Team is a group made up of clergy and congregation members from all three churches. We meet every few months to plan how to both work towards Silver status in the Ecochurch Scheme but also to ensure we care for God’s earth irrespective of external awards. We would welcome new members to join us – no experience necessary just a willingness to learn and work together. Please contact the Parish Office

Bell Ringing
The Richmond bell ringers are an active group who are dedicated to maintaining regular ringing in the parish. We ring most Sundays before the morning service and practice on Tuesday evenings. We also ring for weddings and other special occasions.
