We have a dedicated team of staff who organise our hugely popular annual summer fete. It is a wonderful event that brings the whole village together.

St Peter and St Paul has a ring of eight bells. Come along to the church tower on a Thursday evening and see what is involved. (Please do not open the tower door while the bells are actually ringing). There is a knack in ringing bells which takes a little time to master, but once learnt, your ability opens up endless possibilities to develop a great tradition. We have enough volunteers most Sundays to ring at least six of the bells. We would love to be able to ring all the bells and so are always keen to teach others to join our band.

Church cleaning - volunteers are always needed for our cleaning team, one hour once a month, all equipment supplied.

The group meets once a month, generally on the first Saturday at 9.30am, with the aim of managing the Lower Churchyard, in particular by cutting the grass and trimming the hedges but undertaking other tasks as necessary. We are always in need of more volunteers so please do come along, no gardening experience necessary.

Every Tuesday we host a tea and coffee morning in the Miller Room in church between 10am and 12 noon. It is highly appreciated by the regulars who attend and a pleasant surprise for visitors.

A dedicated team of volunteer florists help keep the church looking welcoming on a weekly basis. The whole team contribute to special displays during the Christmas and Easter festivals. If you are planning to hold a wedding in church is it worth getting in touch with the team for help and advice (although at present we cannot offer to arrange flowers for weddings).

The Friends of St. Peter and St. Paul was founded in 1997 with the aim of encouraging an interest in and support for the enhancement and development of the church, its monuments and its churchyards by raising funds through subscriptions and a variety of social events. The Friends achieve this by applying for grants and funding projects approved by the Parochial Church Council. There are 130 members and more are always welcome. Become a member and attend entertainment organised throughout the year, raising funds towards the upkeep of the church.

Mothers’ Union is a global Christian movement working with people of all faiths and none to develop communities, strengthen families and advocate change. You do not have to be a mother to be a member and men are also welcome. Our group usually meet on the third Tuesday of the month either in the evening or daytime. We have a variety of activities from speakers, church visits and lunches out. We sometimes join with our Tandridge Deanery members at Burstow, Godstone, Oxted and Caterham. We have an annual festival service at Southwark Cathedral. New members are always welcome.

The Singing Group sing anthems on selected Sundays and special occasions as well as leading the congregation weekly during the main Sunday service. New singers are always welcome to join our friendly group which consists of both adults and children. Our aim is to sing even more regularly as we build our repertoire.

On the third Sunday of every month a roast dinner and dessert is provided in the Jennings Hall for local, mainly elderly people. Although a few couples attend, most of these people live alone. We have up to 40 people attending and they appreciate both the meal and also the company of others. It is a valuable social event.
