About Diocese of Portsmouth Local & PtO Leadership

Our diocese is made up of the 11,000 or so worshippers in the 133 Church of England parishes across south-east Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. They are led by our bishop, and include clergy, Readers, retired clergy, chaplains, paid staff and thousand of volunteers who work in our parishes. Our diocese is also divided into seven deaneries, each of which co-ordinates the mission and ministry of parishes in their area. You can read more about the elements that make up our diocese via the menus on this page. Our current vision is to live as disciples of Christ, pray individually and together, and to serve our communities - hence our vision is described as Live | Pray | Serve. Read more about it here. The Diocese of Portsmouth works like a network or family of parishes. Those parishes help each other through prayer, finances and mutual support. It’s our system of parish share that ensures we have a presence in every community and can offer ministry and mission to all who come to us. This video helps to explain how it works.
