Getting started

Care for God's creation - how to start your journey as a church

This is a new Diocesan priority and it can feel overwhelming if you believe you are traveling this journey alone. 

However, there is a great deal of support and resources available from within and outside the Church of England. 

Here are some simple first steps to get you started:

  1. Form a team - remember this could include schools or other people outside of your church
  2. Appoint a Parish Champion - email their details to environmental.champions@durham.anglican.org so we can stay in touch and support them
  3. Register your church on the Eco Church website - this is free and will offer a framework to help you plan the next steps
  4. Make a plan to address some of the small wins given on that site
