We will all face times in life when we need a little help. There are many reasons for this, and it's often different for different people. Whatever the situation, there are people available to help!

On this page you will find information about some of the support services available in our local community and within the Follow Church community.

For more information about any of the external services mentioned on this page, please contact the relevant organisation.

For any of the Follow Church services mentioned here, please contact us by email at pastoralcare@follow.church or contact one of the Pastors directly (their contact details are available by clicking here).

At Follow Church we want to be the most welcoming church on the planet and we want to be brilliant at Pastoral Care. Under this banner, some of the ways that we can support people within our church community are through our Visitation, Meals, Care Packs and Prayer Ministries. We invite you to watch the following video to learn more about how we seek to care for our community.
