(Please be mindful that the numbers are limited due to Government guidelines and that at St Joseph’s and Holy Family we can overspill into the halls, so Mass at those churches can accommodate more people.

Volunteer Stewards are still needed for our Masses, you must not be from those instructed to shield themselves, nor from those under 18 or over 70 years old, or from groups considered more vulnerable to coronavirus. If you can help in please email the parish office with the subject line ‘Volunteer’ and encourage others to offer as well.
