The parish includes three Catholic Primary Schools, St Cuthbert’s, St Bede’s and St Margaret Mary’s, and also the high school St John Henry Newman Catholic School and Austin Friars school. The Catholic patients in the Hospitals, the Hospice and the various care homes remain under the care of the priests and the parish.

Mass Times
The celebration of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass takes place every day. The Mass is, for the Catholic Christian, the high point of the day since the Eucharist is the ‘source and summit’ of all we do.
All Catholics are encouraged to attend the celebration of Mass as often as possible. The times of the celebration of Mass is listed below.
If you would like Mass celebrated for a particular intention then please complete one of the ‘Mass Intention’ envelopes found in the porch of the church.
