St Helen's, Longhorsley
A Vibrant and Friendly Village Church
Longhorsley Church offers you a warm welcome! We are a village church with strong links to the wider community and school.

Our Story
Welcome to St Helen's, a delightful little church that has transformed from a historic School House into a vibrant parish church after the original Norman Church closed its doors in 1966! Here, you’ll always be greeted with open arms and a friendly smile, and there's always for a cozy cuppa and some tasty treats after each service. Our worship is a wonderful blend of tradition and contemporary music, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. We’re thrilled to embark on an exciting new adventure, sharing a priest in charge with other local churches, and we cherish our strong connections with the local school and community. St Helen's is truly everybody's church, and we can't wait to welcome you!
