About Us

Over 130 years in Bedfordshire and part of a 200-year heritage

Driven by care and compassion

Working with the Rapid Relief Team to support the NHS and emergency services

The Plymouth Brethren Christian Church is a Christian fellowship driven by care and compassion. We are committed to serving communities through extensive charitable  activity.

Locally, the Church’s congregation is drawn from areas around Luton, Dunstable, Houghton Regis, and Leighton Buzzard. We’ve been part of the local community for over 130 years, being familiarly known as Brethren for most of our wider 200-year history.  

In Bedfordshire, the Church has an established record of supporting the local community. This includes through the Rapid Relief Team, a charity made up of volunteers from the Church that has made a significant positive impact in the local community. 

This has included organising a Luton & Dunstable International Nurses Day Lunch, delivering food boxes, sleeping bags, and snack packs to homelessness charity NOAH during the festive period, supporting with a coast-to-coast cycle ride for a construction-based charity as part of a national event which they were hosting, supporting emergency services responding to major incidents and much more.
