We’re pleased to announce that Portholme Church has started work on a new project to provide completely new accessible toilet facilities. The existing toilets will be replaced with five new fully enclosed toilets featuring modern fixtures and fittings. The improvements will provide a gender-neutral toilet that is fully accessible to wheelchair users, a gender-neutral baby change area with toilet and suitable space / equipment, two dedicated female toilets and one dedicated male toilet.

Portholme Church's existing toilets have not been modernised since the church was built in 1984. This will be a full refresh of our toilet facilities to meet today's accessibility standards and the expectation of the people in our community who use the church and the hall. We’re hoping to be able to get the work done later this year. Look out for more updates!

The project will be carried out in a way that is as eco-friendly as possible to reduce energy use and eliminate paper towel waste, thereby contributing towards our aim of achieving Net Zero Carbon. The planned new floor layout is shown below.

We are delighted to announce that Dan Holmes will be including Portholme Church in his upcoming UK tour. This has a provisional date of Thursday 24 September 2026, but this and may change as Dan finalises the details of all his UK concerts.
Dan Holmes last visited Portholme Church in 2023 – join us for another evening of songs, stories and joyful music. If you heard Dan perform on his last visit, then you’ll certainly want to be there. If not, make sure you don’t miss him this time! Dan sings his own contemporary songs expressing his Christian faith in words and music. Find out more at Dan Holmes’ website.
