Cambridge City Foodbank

Cambourne Welcome Centre

The Cambourne Welcome Centre of the Cambridge City Foodbank has sessions in the Blue Space(just behind the church building) every Thursday morning 10.00am-12.00pm.

For more information about the foodbank or to contact the team, please call: 07772 538628 or email: info@ccfb.org.uk or julie.whitbread@cambournechurch.org.uk

CCFB operates as part of the Trussell Trust network, which coordinates the largest network of food banks nationally. Food banks offer three days of emergency food for individuals and families in crisis. In Cambourne the team of volunteers is comprised of members of the church and the community who are all passionate about getting as many families as possible to access food when life is challenging and to offer space to listen and talk over a cup of tea.

To be able to receive food from the Foodbank a voucher is required. There are several voucher holders in Cambourne, for example: family workers, all GPs at Monkfield Medical Practice, SCDC, the church minister, schools in Cambourne and several others.

Due to increasing demand we are often getting low with stocks of food so if you would like to support the Foodbank please visit the Cambridge City Foodbank website for particular items that might be required or for more information in general.

If you would like to make a donation to the Foodbank there is a collection point in the Co-Op in Lower Cambourne, in the church foyer and in the foyer of the Blue Space. Unfortunately the church office has no space to store bulk donations.

Planning your Visit

New to Church?

Welcome! Whether you've just moved to the area, or have lived here all your life, we hope our website helps you to find out everything you want to know about our Church.

When & where does the church meet?

Sunday One will be on the first Sunday of the month. It is a 10.00am service for all ages with Communion.

On the other Sundays of the month there will be 9.30am and 11.00am services, as usual, with groups for children and young people at the 11.00am service.
Communion will be celebrated on at least one of these Sundays, as publicised.

Any changes to this will be shared on our Facebook page or shown on the calendar here.

The 9.30 service is more traditional in style with the music mainly consisting of hymns played on a keyboard.
The 11am service is more contemporary in style with the music being lead by a worship team. Most of the songs are more modern than those played at the 9.30 service.

We meet at:
Cambourne Church

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a very warm welcome particularly from our Welcome Team who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go. There will be some singing to start with as well as some prayers and a reading from the bible. There will be a talk (some reflections) from one of the leaders of the church, with a chance to discuss it further at the end of the service.

Tea, coffee and biscuits are served after the service where there is plenty of time to meet new people and ask more questions.

What is there for children and young people at church?

We have a fantastic programme for the children and young people at the Church. Children and young people stay with their families at the start of the service as we worship (sing songs!) together for the first part of the morning. Someone will announce when the children and young people need to go to their programme. We have young church for those from Yr R - Yr 6 and a youth group for our young people in years 7-13. There is a creche in the church foyer for younger children.

Is there a dress code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in your 'normal' clothes.

Will I have to join in?

Not at all!
You are free to simply observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.
