Members of the Archdeaconry Synod (Elected Lay Representatives and Licensed Chaplains) met together with some colleagues – clergy with PTO, Readers, Churchwardens, Treasurers and others – to look back over 2023, complete official Synod business and to look forward to a more structured operating system.

A lot had been achieved in 2023, including the re-registration of the chaplaincy 1905 Associations. Read the minutes for full details.

We also heard from two speakers: Braden Muilenburg, the Refugee Officer, and Barbara Alger, recently appointed Net Zero Officer in the Diocese in Europe.
