The Sunday Mass.

In 2016 a number of changes were introduced to the text of the Sunday mass and weekday mass, one of these was where the reader came to the end of the reading, "this is" was dropped. This conclusion to the reading was replaced by "the word of the Lord".

Wheelchair spaces:

The spaces identified as wheelchair spaces are being occupied by vehicles which have no wheelchairs and so those who have wheelchairs have to park away from the gate. We need to respect the designated wheelchair spaces.
