On Saturday the Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced that England would go into a four-week lockdown from Thursday, November 5th.

We are still waiting for details of what this means for churches and we will update you as soon as we can. A spokesperson for the Church of England has said: “We will study the detailed regulations and continue to liaise with Government departments to offer clarity to churches.

“This is a time of real uncertainty for everyone and the Church will continue to be central to the life of our communities in bringing light and hope.”
