We are looking for someone with a passion for and experience of mission and outreach to young people and families in a diverse rural context. With six primary schools there are lots of opportunities.

The Diocese of Winchester is seeking two outstanding leaders, both of whom have demonstrated experience of parish church growth, with a calling to equip and train laity and clergy.  

Situated in this stunningly scenic part of North Devon, we are three distinct congregations whose town and country parishes follow the coastline from Ilfracombe to Combe Martin, on the edge of Exmoor.  

The benefice was formally created in 2019 after five years of working together. It is hoped that our new Priest-in-Charge will bring drive and enthusiasm to the future development of the benefice which is set in urban and rural villages southeast of the Peak District.

The United Benefice of Upper Tooting is at the heart of a vibrant, diverse and changing community. The two parishes and their congregations represent different demographics but share a liberal catholic tradition, an inclusive welcoming heart and a strong commitment to community engagement.
