If you have any questions, require further information or would like to speak to someone informally, please contact the Parish Office (9:30-2.00pm Mon-Fri)

Please note: The Diocese of Chester will not interview any candidates for posts if they cannot provide an assurance of a valid DBS and up to date safeguarding training.

The PCC has made a request to the Bishop, on grounds of theological conviction, that arrangements be made for it in accordance with the House of Bishops’ Declaration on the Ministry of Bishops and Priests (concerning women priests). There is therefore a requirement that the post-holder be a male priest. Please note: the conviction concerns the priority of maintaining the unity we enjoy across a range of views on this matter.
