A PORTISHEAD church has launched a new project called Space To Be.

St Peter’s Church in Church Road South is throwing its doors open every Wednesday during Lent from 2.30-8pm until March 28 to offer people a chance to drop in and receive both material and spiritual refreshment.

An indoor garden will provide a space for reflection, there will be people to act as listeners, an area where a soothing hand massage is on offer and craft activities will be available.
