200 years ago Charles Darwin was born, 150 years ago he published ‘The Origin of Species’.

Church Rules - It was announced at the church meeting in May that the Charity Commission requires churches to become individual charities - rather than coming under the umbrella of the Baptist Union for charity purposes (reclaiming gift-aid etc). This means we will need a new constitution, and the BU have drafted a Constitution which we could adopt to replace our current rules. This will be discussed in future meetings and voted on in November - in the meantime please read the current rules and the proposed new constitution and let us know your thoughts.
