The Mothers' Union is about friendship, faith, and supporting one another through the joys and challenges of family and community life. At Uppingham Parish Church, our branch meets on the second Tuesday of every month, 10 am - 12 noon. Each gathering begins with a short service, followed by coffee, conversation, and often a guest speaker or social activity in the Church Hall. Our meetings are a place to pause, connect, and be encouraged.
Although founded to support mothers, the Mothers' Union today welcomes both women and men who share its values. Whether you are new to the area, exploring faith, or simply looking for companionship, you'll find a warm welcome. New members are always welcome. Please contact our Leader, Moyra Collins - 07540 828362
Brief History: The Mothers' Union was founded in 1876 by Mary Sumner, a clergyman's wife in Hampshire. What began as a small parish initiative to support women in raising their families grew into an international Christian movement. Today, the Mothers' Union has over four million members in more than 80 countries, working together in prayer, fellowship, and practical action to support family life and community.
