COVID 19 precautions
All our services will be live streamed and can be found below.
We want you to be safe while visiting St Mark's, so we require everyone to wear a mask when they enter the building unless they are exempt. Most of our services will have over 100 people and our preparations (and ventilating heating system) mean we are a very safe venue for up to 200 people. As an added way of keeping everyone safe, we ask that you take a lateral flow test before you join us for an event. You will not need to show evidence of this. Our Turkey Barms and Community Carols event may see more than 300 in the building and we encourage those who are most vulnerable to the virus to view that service from home.
