We are a group of small Anglican Churches covering the villages of Upper Denby and Denby Dale, Cumberworth, Shelley and Shepley. We are worshipping communities that meet together predominantly on Sundays and Wednesdays and engage in the life of the local communities. We have two successful spaces that are regularly rented out to regular groups and one-off bookings such as wedding receptions. All of our workforce are volunteers with the exception of the Vicar, but who are becoming older and unable to take on the high demands of the professional, yet volunteer roles that the Church needs.
We are looking to expand with additional volunteers who could help us with the planning and co-ordinating of our diary and rentals. Any such person MUST be sympathetic to Christian values and be willing to help out on a regular basis.
We are looking for a person or people who would like to become involved in other initiatives as the need arises. I am thinking of luncheon clubs or games afternoons, or whatever it may be. We always need people on hand to make tea and engage with the those who attend.
The Church of St. Nicholas, Upper Cumberworth is looking to start a new Cafe during the week and we are looking for people to help with it's set up and the practical running of a cafe.
We envisage that this may be a weekly event which will need more than one volunteer. Our aim is to bring together the community of Cumberworth and surrounding area because there are limited amenities in the area.
This may be a Church, but you can be guaranteed of laughter and fellowship. You may make new friends or meet again with old ones.
Once you have submitted your interest, you will be invited in for a chat about the role.
