Help for Churchwardens

The English Clergy Association's new initiative to help churchwardens has been appreciated. We continue to offer help and information to churchwardens nationally. Churchwardens will enjoy the twice-yearly Parson and Parish magazine, and we seek to give legal information, information in these pages on how to deal with an interregnum, how to get grants, advice about buildings maintenance and so on.

Lord Cormack, Vice-President of the English Clergy Association said "As a church warden myself in my local church, I am delighted to see this initiative which will provide help and advice to hard-pressed churchwardens throughout the country".
