District human resources officer volunteer roles

The Connexional Council is seeking to welcome a lay person who is passionate about justice, diversity and inclusion, to become a member of the Justice, Dignity and Solidarity Committee. Appointments will be for a term of up to 3 years renewable annually for up to a further 3 years. The Committee values the contributions of both ministers and lay people in shaping its work and seeks to strengthen this balance by welcoming an additional lay member. This is an opportunity to help guide the Church’s continuing journey toward becoming a fully inclusive community.

As a member of the JDS Committee you will have the opportunity to influence policy and practices that impact Diversity and Inclusion within the life of the church.  The Committee meets five times a year for a combination of business meetings and a team-building session, creating space for both shared reflection and collective shaping of its work.  If you feel enthusiastic about championing the work of Justice and Inclusion in the Methodist Church, partner with us on our journey to create a truly inclusive Church where the values of justice, dignity, and solidarity are at the heart of everything we do and say.

There will be an opportunity to speak to current Committee members who will be happy to answer any questions you may have about the process and to share more information about the role.

Open Sessions will be held via Zoom on Thursday 6th November 2025 at the following times:

• 11am – 12pm
• 7pm  – 8pm
