Holy Trinity is a large imposing church which means eye-catching flower arrangements are quite a challenge for our dedicated and enthusiastic group of volunteers who create them.

A large pedestal arrangement next to the pulpit is changed weekly on a rota basis. At Christmas and Easter we are all involved in creating a colourful and festive atmosphere in the church and during Lent we take a break. At present our group numbers 9 which means a commitment of three or four arrangements a year, plus a team effort at Easter and Christmas. It is a very satisfying and peaceful way to spend an hour or so in such inspiring and restful surroundings. We are always pleased to welcome new members; no experience is necessary just a love of flowers and greenery and a spare hour or two every so often. Flowers are arranged in St Mary’s for the main festivals and like Holy Trinity the small team of arrangers would welcome new helpers on these occasions.
