"a lively evangelical urban church with members from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Our church is in partnership with the local Salvation Army, and we worship together weekly. Though we are small in number, we have a huge vision for mission in our area. Nearly every day of the week has a mission project running to serve our community and share with them the love of Jesus Christ. We run programmes for everyone - children, youth, internationals, young families, women, and men.
The first thing you'll notice about our church when you step in the door is that we have a massive softplay in the building! Eden Softplay opened in 2013 as a social enterprise of Saint Saviour's Church. Open 7 days a week, Eden offers a place of peace and fun for familes. A 4-storey softplay provides hours of fun for under 10s, while a smaller toddler area is perfect for little ones. A cafe serves hot meals, drinks, and treats for everyone.
Once a month the church runs a special all-age service using the softplay. It's as much of a party as it is a church service - come check out "Eden Church" on the first Sunday of each month.
On Sundays we meet at 4:30pm - but come early at 4:00pm for free play on the softplay! Other groups and meetings can be found on our website, (

"Saint Saviour's Church is a parish church in the Church of England in The Meadows, Nottingham.
The church is Grade II listed by the Department for Culture, Media & Sport as it is a building of special architectural or historic interest.
The parish was formed out of that of St. Mary's Church, Nottingham. The foundation stone of the church building was laid by the Rt. Revd. John Jackson, Bishop of Lincoln, on 28 September 1863. The nave of the church was opened for worship in 1864 and was designed by the local architect Richard Charles Sutton funded by the Ecclesiastical Commissioners. It replaced a small mission chapel which had served the residents of the Meadows but became too small for the increasing population after the enclosure of the Meadows.
The chancel occupies the east end, with a vestry on the one side and the organ chamber on the other. The length of the nave is 74 ft., and the width 24 ft.; the aisles are each 74 ft. long and 17 ft. wide. The chancel is 30 ft. deep by 24 ft. wide. The height of the nave is 46 ft. It was designed to accommodate seats for 750 people.
The amount of the contract was about £3,000 (equivalent to £263,430 in 2016). The contractor was a local builder, John Barker, based in Arkwright-street, The Meadows. The vicarage to designs by Frederick Bakewell was added in 1867.
The church is located on Arkwright Walk.
Worship services are held weekly at 4:30 PM. The congregation is in an informal partnership with the local Salvation Army church, with joint worship services held each Sunday.
In 2013 the main church building was renovated to make room for an indoor softplay centre and café. Eden Softplay is open seven days a week for children and families to enjoy."
