making church accessible, engaging, fun and relevant to all ages in Colchester Essex.
United was born in lockdown. As a family of five, new to Kingswood Heath in Colchester when lockdown began, we started YouTube films online as a way of connecting with the local community.
As time progresses, we can involve others in our films, and welcome the opportunities to do so. That means if you want to take part in one of our films you are most welcome.
These three straplines underpin all that we are seeking to be and do as God’s people here on earth.
We all want to make the most of every opportunity to live well and enjoy life, but we encounter obstacles along the way. We also encounter obstacles to faith development, and find that God or the church seem inaccessible to us.
We believe that God is accessible to everyone and church can look very different from the traditional model that we have become used to.

We are committed to safeguarding children, young people and vulnerable adults.
We, in common with the Church of England are committed, as part of the Christian Church living in the spirit of the Gospel, to protect and care for everyone and we aim to be a beacon of best practice in safeguarding. Looking the other way is not an option.
