Both Brigades meet in the Youth Hall opposite the Church.


Each week The Boys' Brigade works with thousands of young people, many of whom have no other connection with the Church. Today we are working nationally with over 60,000 children & young people in over 1500 companies (groups) in the UK & Republic of Ireland every week.

The Boys' Brigade provides a balanced programme of activities for children and young people from 5 to 18 years old. These resources have been developed to help volunteer youth leaders work in a relevant and creative way. We hope through these programmes they will be able to make a positive contribution to a young person's life and be able to share their faith.

Our work is split into age groups as follows:

• Anchor Section - for Boys aged 5 to 8 years
• Junior Section - for Boys aged 8 to 11 years
• Company Section - for Boys aged 11 to 15 years
• Seniors - for young men aged 15 to 18 years
• Amicus - for young people aged 14 to 22 years

Child Protection Policy available on application to the Church Secretary.
