We are Avon Valley Churches
Loving. Connecting. Serving.
Welcome! We are a group of seven churches on the Western edge of the New Forest in the Diocese of Winchester. Our members are all ages and from a variety of backgrounds, all united in our love for Jesus and a desire to serve others. We’d love you to join us in church, online or at any of our groups.

Umoja is a UK and Kenya based charity that responds to the issue of street-living boys in Kenya. This year, they are building a new rescue centre, and need 3000 bricks to finish the job. Can you help them?
Each brick costs just £2.35, and you can buy as many as you like; giving a tangible way to support a worthy cause, with your name added to a plaque inside the dorm!
