All Saints stands at a crossroads near the centre of Youlgrave village, and we feel privileged to be regarded as a valued part of the village community, among both church-goers and non-church-goers.
We feel it is important that church is kept open, and we extend a warm welcome to all our visitors, whether they come to join us for worship, or to see All Saints' history or to simply appreciate a time of stillness or prayer. We appreciate reading comments left in our visitors' book, and we pray regularly for prayer requests left in the book in our side chapel.
We are delighted to have a good relationship with Youlgrave Primary School, who use church for curriculum activities, and also for Christmas, Easter and Harvest services and events. The school children have also contributed to our Easter displays and our flower festivals.
