COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Guidance

We have been closely monitoring the outbreak of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and, following advice from Public Health England and the Church of England, we are taking appropriate steps to ensure we keep our visitors, congregations, staff team and event attendees as safe as possible.

Firstly, we'd like to express that our thoughts and prayers are with you all in this time of uncertainty and confusion.

Worship and Services

We are now open on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 11am - 2pm for private prayer, new measures have been put in place to keep people safe. We will be open for Public Worship. Space is limited subject to safety, you will be required to book your space online.

New measures to keep people safe will include limiting the number of people allowed in at any one time and signage to remind people of the health and safety around social distancing. Our commitment to the health and safety of our visitors and staff means that we are also asking people not to bring flowers or other tributes into Church.

Whilst we are delighted to be able to welcome those who wish to visit for individual private prayer we must make sure that our building is safe for our staff and visitors. We want everyone to feel safe and welcomed here at St Paul's, so we ask for your assistance with the following:

If you have any of the following symptoms please do not visit:

●High temperature

●New continuous cough

●Loss or change to your sense of smell or taste

If you are unsure then please do not visit. If you become unwell during your visit please alert a member of staff.

Please follow social distancing guidelines and remain 2 metres away from non-household members.

Please follow the directional signage.

We are taking the health and well-being of all who access St Paul's very seriously, so in order to ensure the health and well-being of all, we have taken the following steps to ensure your safety.

●Increased cleaning in St Paul's

●Regular hand-washing by staff

●Hand sanitiser available to all

●Social distancing measures in place

●One-way system introduced

●Relevant PPE for those staff members who require it

St Paul's is a very special place to us all, and we want everyone who visits to have a positive experience. We hope that by working together we will be able to achieve this, and if you have any concerns or comments during your time with us please make a member of staff aware. We hope to find peace and reassurance in this wonderful building.

Events

We will be postponing all events and activities in our programme until May 2021. Where it is possible there are some events that we will attempt to live stream so please keep an eye on our social media and website for further updates.

This is a difficult time for many businesses and heritage sites in the Jewellery Quarter, please do your best to stand by the independents and heritage sites in the Jewellery Quarter by purchasing gift cards, memberships or whatever you can within your means.

Please get in touch if you need to contact a member of the team we'd love to speak to you and support you in the best way that we can.
