The Church
on the Heath was launched in December 2000.
When Fleet's Elvetham Heath development was being planned, local
churches formed a Local Ecumenical Partnership (LEP) to establish a
single united church for the area. One of the first houses at Elvetham
Heath was bought to provide a home for the church's minister and his
family.
As part of Elvetham Heath since its very early days, the church is
pleased to play an active part in many aspects of establishing and
strengthening the new community.
David Price, pictured below, has been minister of the church since its
launch - for more information, please read his
profile.

After meeting in the local Community Centre for six
years, we moved into our new purpose-built church building in The Key at
Elvetham Heath on 3 December 2006 – our sixth anniversary. To view
a map of our location, click
here, or see our
contact us page for written directions.
The building is open 8:30am-12:30pm Monday to Friday, 9:30-12
Saturdays and at 10am and 7:30pm for Sunday services. Additional
afternoon/evening activities may also mean that the building is open
outside these times.
Inside the light and airy building, visitors can find a 300-seat worship
area, a hall, a coffee bar, a crèche, and other meetings rooms and
offices. The church is open each morning and visitors are welcome to
drop in to look around, for a chat or cup of coffee.
The building is also open at 10am and 7:30pm for
Sunday services and additionally for other activities - please see the
events page and
weekday activities page for more details.
The church launched its ‘Breaking New Ground’ appeal to raise funds for
the £2 million building. Although support has been received from the
church’s founding denominations, the majority of the fundraising
required is being carried out by the church’s growing congregation and
local supporters.
If you would like to contribute to the building fund, please contact our
church treasurer.
