Catechists are Parishioners who give their time to prepare children and young people for the Sacraments of Reconciliation, First Eucharist and Confirmation, and who conduct the Children's Liturgy. Anyone interested in becoming a catechist should contact the Parish Priest who will put them in touch with the relevant co-ordinator. It is not necessary to have any expert qualifications to be a catechist and many parents have found great fulfilment in assisting in the preparation of candidates for the Sacraments of the Church. Please note that this voluntary post requires a Disclosure and Barring (DBS) check.
