Planning a visit? Arriving ten minutes early leaves time to find a seat and say hello. Parking near British churches is often limited, so check the surrounding streets or walk if you can, and if step-free access or a hearing loop matters to you, it is worth ringing ahead, as provision varies from building to building.
