Job Details:
The West Midlands Regional Racial Justice Project was established by the six dioceses in the region (Birmingham, Coventry, Gloucester, Hereford, Lichfield and Worcester) to enable work to tackle racism and promote racial justice in our Church and in wider society.
Racism has no place in the Church of England, but we must face the fact that it still exists. As West Midlands bishops, meeting on Stephen Lawrence Day, we strongly affirm the work of the Archbishops’ Anti-Racism Taskforce and the report ‘From Lament to Action’ … We acknowledge our part in past and present failures and recognise the challenges it presents. We wholeheartedly support its recommendations and look forward to taking them forward with energy and determination.” Anglican Bishops in the West Midlands

In Hereford Diocese, we are seeking to implement relevant Actions from the report ‘From Lament to Action’ but are conscious that we lack the capacity to do this work.
As a result the Regional Racial Justice Project has made an allocation of funding to support 52 days of time on a consultancy basis, at a cost of £350 per day for the period 1 October 2025 -30 June 2026.
