About & Team

New Life Community Church (NLCC), after careful consideration and prayer we felt encouraged to rent a premises on the high street in Fordingbridge, we opened the branch April 2019.

We love the towns and communities that we serve. We want to be a beacon of light & we had this great opportunity on the Fordingbridge high street, to create a place where anyone can come and take shelter and chat and take part in any of our activities and programmes.

The branch is both a retail space where you will find Christian resources and gifts but also a Community Hub where we run everything from youth work & parent/carer support groups to Coffee mornings.

Our pastoral team Paul Williams and Dale Kratzke are based in the offices at the branch and the Retail side of the shop is run by a group of brilliant volunteers.

What’s on

Tuesday afternoons we run GAME ON, an chance to enjoy a game of Scrabble or Rummikub with a friend over a cuppa & biscuit

 

Coffee mornings at the Branch is every Wednesday morning, so grab a friend & get yourselves a slice of cake & a cuppa for a bargain £1.50.

 

Little Buds is currently running Friday mornings

Community

NLCC and The Branch are here to serve our community- whether it’s someone to talk to, one of our courses or events or access to foodbank vouchers please feel free to pop in.

We also work alongside some brilliant people who make a huge difference to The community of Fordingbridge.

Fordingbridge Foodbank is part of the Trussell Trust and is open 3 days a week and led by David and a group of volunteers. We can issue Foodbank vouchers from the branch after a few questions regarding your personal circumstances.
