The Flower Festival is held every year in conjunction with the Church Fete. It is a wonderful opportunity for people who would not normally attend church, to be able to visit and enjoy this beautiful ancient building.

Each year a theme is chosen for the Flower Festival; this year it was Patron Saints. Those taking part were church members and also people from organisations in the Patcham area.

The weather was kind and the fete and festival were a great success. Visitors especially enjoyed listening to the music of the Patcham Silver Band.
