Community Outreach

defibrillator

We play a central role in the community of Porthcawl and host many events throughout the week, as well as our regular services. The St John's Ambulance meet regularly on a Tuesday evening and hold classes. We have also purchased a defribulator which is located outside the front door and can be used by the general public during an emergency situation. In addition, we host Trinity Care and Support, U3A, Churches Together in Porthcawl, and Rainbows.

Trinity Care & Support was originally set up and run by Trinity Church for many years. It now operates as an independent charity, but is still very much part of the life of Trinity. This Care Club for people with learning difficulties is supported by volunteers from among our church members.

Churches Together in Porthcawl - some of our members servce on the executive committee, and we regualrly host events, including joint services, social gatherings and Christian Aid annual fundraising.

As a community church we reach out in various ways:

Our Saturday Snacks has been very successful for many years, held between 10-12 for coffee, tea, cake and chats!

CAMEO (Come And Meet Everyone) is our ladies' group and it is very well supported. It also includes members from the wider community, meeting on the 2nd and 4th Monday of the month at 2pm. We usually have guest speakers at the   meetings and an end of session lunch. See noticeboards for more details. 

Communion services held monthly at Dan-Y-Graig Care home once a month.

The In Touch magazine delivered free about three times a year to our wider group of people who have a connection with Trinity. These are also available free from the Trinity shop, foyer and the leaflet box outside the front door. Please do take a copy!
