The Church is a Field Hospital for Sinners.
St Matthew's serving the community of East Ashford.
The following information is relevant for every day:
St Matthew's has a loop system installed, which suitable hearing aid users can use by switching to the âTâ setting.
Guide dogs and hearing dogs are admitted. We provide large-print copies of the weekly service sheet and the words of the hymns, and we are actively working on providing more large-print service books.
Except for the chancel, public areas of the church are accessible via a ramp. We are happy to bring communion to those who (for whatever reason) find it difficult to get to the altar. Toilet facilities are available for those with limited mobility, including wheelchair users.
Please get in touch with us if you have any queries about your particular situation while attending St Matthew's.
