Clergy Wellbeing

Hands making a heart shape around a setting sun in the background

Ensuring the wellbeing of clergy is an important aspect of the life of our Diocese.

We continue to monitor the key aspects of wellbeing, awareness of trends etc, and enable appropriate actions to be taken to improve the wellbeing of the ordained ministers in the diocese.  COVID-19 increased our need to ensure we provide support and advice for clergy and their families post the global pandemic.

In 2022 we received a generous grant from the Benefact Trust which we are using to support a number of clergy and staff wellbeing events and activities. 

We continue to monitor the wellbeing of our clergy and have developed resources that support the individual and also support the clergy family unit.

There are a number of organisations who provide support for clergy 

We have a Clergy Wellbeing Group. This group meets regularly to monitor and make recommendations designed to help improve the wellbeing of our clergy. If you would like to contribute to this group then please do so by contacting either the Archdeacon of Hereford or the Archdeacon of Ludlow.

Other Useful resources

Please get in touch with your area dean or archdeacon for support and information.  There are further resources available to support clergy on this section or under the ministry section of the website.
