Great emphasis is placed upon the pastoral ministry in caring for the church community in both sickness and health.   Work with Children and Young People Children and Young People are welcome at this Church. There is an active Junior Church for children and young people up to the age of 18. This incorporates fully staffed, equipped and secure crèche facilities. In addition J Force  provides an exciting range of social activities for ages 10 to 16. There is also a thriving Brownie group. All youth workers are properly trained and the church subscribes to the Methodist Church's "Safe from Harm" policy. Parent and Toddler Group This Group meets in the church hall each Tuesday  during term-time, from 10am -11.30.a.m. We aim to provide a safe and friendly environment for Parents, Carers, and pre-school children to meet and share together. The majority of the children are under 3 years, but you may bring those older if you wish.  The group is open to anyone in the community - you do not have to be a church member (most are not), but of course you would be welcome at any of our church events or activities. There is a music session at the end of the morning at 11.15. for those who wish to participate, but children can remain with the toys if they prefer. The charge is 50p per family unit, per morning, and includes refreshments.  You do not need to register in advance; just come along.

Funds are channelled through the World Church department of The Methodist Church including collections and subscriptions to Overseas Missions including JMA (Junior Mission for All). Outreach Outreach to the Local Community and to the World are important aspects of the life of this Church. A recent development is the appointment of a Detached Youth Worker to work amongst young people in need in the local area. This is in association with Churches Together in Haywards Heath and District and with NCH. The Church also actively supports the Whitechapel Methodist Mission with gifts of clothes, food and finance. It also involves itself in many world mission projects and with other charitable organisation both locally and internationally. Drama Drama provides an important and major contribution to the life of this church. The Perrymount Players present public performances to the highest standard and also contribute to Worship through religious plays and dramatised readings particularly at the principal Christian Festivals. Membership is open to players whether members of the church or not and new members are always welcome.
