Inspire 2026
A day for Christian women to feel encouraged, strengthened in faith and reminded that God is not finished with them. Our event is for Christian ladies across all ages and stages whether you've been walking with the Lord for years, or you're still finding your feet. We're believing for a day where women can connect, worship, laugh and leave spiritually refreshed, inspired and full of hope.
We're really pleased to welcome Cath Woolridge as our guest speaker for this year.
Cath is a proud Welsh girl with a huge heart for prayer — she coordinates 24/7 Prayer Wales and is also a regular on BBC Radio 2's Pause for Thought where she is able to share her faith with thousands of listeners. Cath is also the Creative Director of Sound of Wales, who will be leading us in worship for the day.

Alpha
Curious about faith?
What does faith look like for you? Be part of the conversation at Alpha. Join a series of group conversations that freely explore the basics of the Christian faith in an open, friendly environment. At each Alpha session, you’ll be hosted in a small group and watch an episode on a different question of faith – then you have a chance to share your thoughts and hear what others think. You can say anything you like, or nothing at all. Everyone’s welcome. You’re invited, no matter your background or beliefs. It’s free and there’s no pressure to come back.
