Budget Feedback
Thank you all for the engagement in the discussion.
The feedback has come by letter, email and from various meetings – Rural Deans, Lay Chairs, Deanery Treasurers and Deanery Synods. David Pain and I had the pleasure of attending some of the Deanery Synods, which has been an enlightening process – we are always happy to be asked!
All this feedback is informing the Budget Paper, which will be presented to Diocesan Synod on 6th November. This is the Synod where we will be asking members to approve the Diocesan 2022 Budget.

Even in this short time we have had a very healthy take up, which gives confidence that this is the right path. However, we still need you to join the scheme, as the more churches that are included, the more we can review the trial and – if needed – tailor the pilot to suit your needs even more. If you would like to see the software before joining, why not join us for an online presentation on 2nd November at 3.00pm?
