Granby and Sutton are small neighbouring villages (population about 300), fourteen miles east of Nottingham, which share a number of community groups and events.
All Saints' Church, Granby has a traditional feel. In addition to routine services it celebrates festivals and additional events such as a popular Christmas Cheer singalong, a carol service and outdoor carol-singing with the Granby and Sutton Singers. These events attract many folk who do not normally worship in church.
