At Holy Trinity, children, young people and their families are a huge part of our church community. Teatime Church https://www.westbury-parish-church.org.uk/teatime-church/ is our monthly family service for the whole family to enjoy together, and we have a number of family-focused services throughout the year, including at Harvest time and during the Christmas period. There are many opportunities for young people to participate in the life of the church, such as through our wonderful choir, as servers, as bellringers or as volunteers (we welcome Duke of Edinburgh candidates). We also offer confirmation classes too.
