Since the Covid lockdowns, these three parishes have collaborated more closely, sharing worship services and resources through an informal arrangement. Despite operating as one in practice, they have maintained separate legal and financial structures, which has become burdensome. Unification is intended to streamline governance, reduce duplication, and enhance the church’s mission and community presence.

Each of the three PCCs has strongly supported the proposal following consultations and meetings. A public consultation is now underway, with meetings planned and a Frequently Asked Questions resource available, inviting questions from the community.
