Welcome to the Beaminster Area Team Ministry

Our patch covers 50 square miles of beautiful West Dorset countryside and consists of 14 individual parishes plus the Mapperton House chapel. We are part of the Diocese of Salisbury.

For the price of a coffee you can make a real difference to the work we do in the Beaminster community. We have simple online donations set up to St Mary’s Church Beaminster, for St Mary’s Church Netherbury, for St John’s Church Seaborough, for St Mary’s Church Stoke Abbott, and for Holy Trinity Salway Ash. Thank you.

Send all your news, events, and reasons to celebrate, to beaminsterteammedia@gmail.com for inclusion here on the site and social media.
