Spam Email Warning
Several fake emails have been sent to church members pretending to come from one of our ministers, asking for help. On closer scrutiny they are from fake email addresses, but this information is not always clearly displayed. Please remember that no-one in the circuit will ever email to ask for money, and it is good practice to always check the sender’s email address before replying. If you are unsure it is always best to contact the person in another way (phone, text) to check if it's really them.
​
The scammers usually take information and contact details that are available on the circuit or church websites, so they are most likely to pretend to be one of the following people:
​
Rev Steve Day
Rev Sue Male
Rev Ajay Singh
Andy Brierley, Circuit Manager
Marcia Pinnock-Roye, Pastoral Assistant
Paul Williams, Circuit Safeguarding Officer
Born in Song Music Academy
Running every Saturday in term-time, the Born in Song Music Academy (BISMA) will inspire and challenge young musicians aged 11 to 18 to develop their musical talents and confidence, bringing their new skills back to their home churches to enrich Methodist worship.
​
The Academy will provide the young musicians with a creative learning environment including specialist classes for group worship band and voice lessons, hymn writing and worship leading skills with organ lessons for those who prefer the more classical end of the musical spectrum.​ Weekly activities are varied and include a number of performance opportunities to add to the musical vibrancy.
​
BISMA will start in September 2025 and we will be running a taster day on Saturday 29th March 2025 for those interested to come along and experience the music academy. The taster day will be £30 and this cost will be deducted from the first term’s fees of £45 per week for those students joining the academy in September 2025.
​
For further information and details of how to sign up to the taster day please email BornInSongMA@gmail.com.
