Facilities & Room Hire
Flexible, accessible spaces in the heart of the village — with views over the River Leven and the Cleveland Hills.
“For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”Matthew 18:20
Accessibility
The church is built on a sloping site overlooking the High Street and the River Leven, so there are a number of different levels internally. There is level access to the youth hall from the top of the chapel steps, meaning this area is accessible from Linden Road and Addison Road for wheelchairs, electric buggies, prams and pushchairs.
From the High Street, as well as the main front door at the top of a sloped pathway, there is a more accessible ramped route to an electronic door suitable for wheelchair users and those with prams or buggies. Once through this door, a lift is available to the church's main level. Two wheelchairs are available to assist with access from street level.
For the deaf or hard of hearing, the church is fitted with a ‘loop’ system — adjust your hearing aid to the ‘T’ position. An accessible toilet with baby change is situated off the church foyer on the main level.
