Ever wondered what it's all about?

Over 2 million people in the UK and 13 million worldwide have now attended an Alpha course, an opportunity to explore the meaning of life, running in tens of thousands of churches of all denominations across the world.

Alpha is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed setting, providing thought-provoking weekly sessions, with a day or weekend away.

Holy Trinity Church, Hatton runs Alpha Courses for eight weeks. The format consists of drinks and snacks with a DVD followed by a meal and small group discussions.

For more information or dates for the next course, please send us an enquiry using the form at the bottom of the Contact page.

Alpha is a place where no question is regarded as too simple or too hostile. Decide for yourself what you can and can’t believe.

Who is Alpha for?
Alpha is for everyone but particularly caters for:
• Non-churchgoers wanting to investigate Christianity in a sociable way.
• Newcomers to the Church.
• Those who feel they haven’t got the complete picture of Christianity.
• Established Christians interested in bringing others along.
