St Mary Magdalene Woodborough is a much-loved church, which is very popular for weddings and baptisms, and the churchyard is the chosen resting place for many residents and families who previously lived here or had connections to Woodborough.

There are close links with Woodborough C of E School, who regularly use the Church for worship and on these occasions (pre-Covid) there was standing room only.
