What's on in Bidwell

Bedfordshire, England

Share:

Bidwell is a quiet spot in Bedfordshire that surprises you with plenty of local fun to find. We keep an eye on what's playing nearby so you don't have to waste time scrolling through endless lists. The nearest gigs and family shows are usually just a short drive away, ready for your weekend. Pub quizzes pop up regularly and the odd community fair keeps things lively without the fuss. Near Here gathers these little bits of local colour into one tidy place for you. It's not about big crowds; it's about knowing exactly where to go when the rain starts.

Frontline Afterchurch

Frontline is our Youth Group for 14-19s (school years 10 and above). It meets every Saturday and Sunday evening during term time. The aim of Frontline is to give young people a great place to hang out and to get to know the Real Jesus. Saturdays Each week there'll be a short talk from the Bible on something relevant to life. It's a great place to find out more about Jesus. Sundays We also meet on Sundays for a chance to consider more about what it means to follow Jesus. We do a mixture of activities, from going round different houses of church members to having question times.
