FIVE THEMES OF GROWTH
Funding From the Commissioners
The Church Commissioners have allocated in total £2.112m to the Diocese. This is now allocated to support the Parish Share. The allocation is used to support Ministry costs in parishes that have high deprivation (approx. 60%) and Rural Ministry, where the population is under 700.
As a result no funding is available to support Resourcing Parish Mission Grants from the end of 2019.
