Calendar of services & events

Come and join Wheatfields Hospice at St Chad's Church for an indoor carol service this Christmas to remember, reflect and celebrate the lives of loved ones.

Our very popular annual Christingle Service.  Please bring along your collecting candle or donation and exchange it for a Christingle orange decorated with red tape, sweets and a candle. 

All donations go to The Children's Society  to raise vital funds to help children who are facing Christmas alone and are unable to cope.

Each element of a Christingle has a special meaning and helps to tell the Christian story: 
The orange represents the world 
The red ribbon (or tape) symbolises the love and blood of Christ 
The sweets and dried fruit represent all of God’s creations 
The lit candle represents Jesus’s light in the world, bringing hope to people living in darkness.
