We recognise, celebrate, and embrace this diversity, committing to an integrated Diocesan approach to racial justice, as reflected in our Diocesan Vision, and prioritising and supporting healing and reconciliation in our communities.

In 2021 we launched the Diocese of Southwark’s Anti Racism Charter (ARC) which builds on earlier work in the Diocese and developed a subsequent 12-point plan to embed the ARC in real action.

We have worked hard to embed the ARC into our Diocesan vision and our management oversight structures and are now focusing even more intentionally on our recruitment, training and education challenges in our parishes and in the communities they serve.  We have two new roles to help us on our journey:

These are great opportunities for someone to make a real difference to the work and progress of the Diocese, and more widely the National Church, in advancing in the area of racial justice for all.
