The Bread Church (also known as Somewhere Else) is an inclusive community that meets around the making and sharing of bread. We offer a warm welcome, hospitality and friendship to those of all faiths and none.
We make bread by hand, with individuals and community groups of all ages and abilities. The sessions include time for:
- all the elements of making bread,
- conversation and refreshments,
- shared reflection and prayers, and
- a simple meal together, prepared by volunteers and those who come to make bread.
Anyone wishing to make bread is asked to arrive by 11a.m. To share in other parts of the fellowship – coffee, conversation, Reflections and lunch – people arrive at any time from mid-morning onwards.
The activity is usually led by our team of volunteers who help with hospitality, and guide visitors through the steps in bread-making.
All our volunteers, known as facilitators, have undergone a 5 session training programme which includes food hygiene as well as safeguarding.
