Altrincham United Reformed Church, is on two sites. We are using the Trinity Hale site. The building is on the corner of Ashley Road and Cecil Road, Hale. Postcode WA15 9NT. There is some parking at the venue, and street parking in the area.
The church has been recently restructured and refurbished with a worship area as well as space for socialising. It was one of the venues when Friends of Sabeel NW hosted the Christian Aid Gaza Art Exhibition “Through Young Eyes” by the young people of the Culture and Free Thought Association in Khan Younis, Gaza, during the summer.
This is a very special worship space and will be an excellent venue for this Concert and the Reflection Day.
