Update on our Diocesan Synod

Following on from the first gathering of the diocesan journey, we are now able to share the ‘Big Listen’ Report. This report shares the responses and themes identified from the diocesan wide listening exercise. You can access the full report via the diocesan website and the QR code below.


The four principal themes that emerged from the Big Listen stage of the process, which took place between October 2023 and January 2024 are: Nurturing Faith in Tomorrow's World, Building Connections, Enabling Access, and Fostering Christ-like Care.


As well as the full report, four summary leaflets and other related resources will be made available in monthly stages on a theme by theme basis, starting in September with Theme One: Faith in tomorrow’s world. You will be able to access these via the same links.


Please look out for more details on how you can get involved in the next stage of our parish’s involvement in the Synod. To find out more about the latest updates, what's next for our diocesan synod, or how you can get involved, please visit:
