Helping families flourish
Hope Families is our ministry for all things families and kids. We're passionate about helping families flourish and building community across the church — from the youngest to the oldest.
We long for every child and their family to experience and know God, and to feel equipped to do everyday life with Him as their partner. We want every child to know they are accepted, valued, and part of a safe community.
Walking alongside you
We love to welcome and support families here at Hope. We'd count it a joy to partner with you as you bring up your children day to day — so please do get in touch, to learn about all the different opportunities that you can get involved in throughout the week.

Hope Kids and Young People
Each Sunday our children gather in age groups to build community and grow their relationship with God. We explore the same Bible story across every group, so conversations can carry on at home through the week.
Learn all about Sundays →Under 5s Stay & Play
A community space for under-5s and their adults to be together and receive from God. Toys, snacks, tea & coffee, space to chat, and a live stream of the preach — you'll leave ready for the week ahead. Private breastfeeding space available.
Under 5s Kids
Our 2–4 year-olds meet each week for fun, craft, singing and snack time, looking at a simple version of the stories being studied in the primary groups.
Lower Primary Kids
Kids in Years R–3 meet to build community and grow their relationship with God through games, stories, prayer, worship and group activities.

Our playlists
Keep the songs going through the week. Pop these on in the car or at home — the same worship your kids and young people are singing on a Sunday.
