About the Pod

As a church we are aiming to be there for the community in a more supportive way. Being based in the heart of the town in the middle of Cheap Street, The Pod is in a very accessible position, with a shop window that can be used to build awareness of all sorts of community groups and support, as well as encouraging more consideration of the Christian message.

We want to work with other churches in the town other groups, and members of the community to link people together, using the shop premises at 54 Cheap Street as a contact point, information hub and drop off/pick up point for various appeals. We aim to promote ways in which we can all contribute to the well being of the whole community.
