We are seeking a Rector who will seize the opportunities that the changes happening in Sutton have to offer, someone who will build relationships with those who live and work here as ‘town centre’ priest.

These rural parishes lie on the edge of the City of Derby giving easy access to beautiful rural Derbyshire Dales and the Peak District but are also within 15 minutes drive of vibrant city life.

We are a welcoming, varied, and active congregation in a friendly village with a strong sense of community. We are committed to being accessible to all as an inclusive church.

This combined Parish is set in a UNESCO World Heritage site among the unspoiled lakes and fells of West Cumberland. It has recently reviewed its Mission Action Plan. For over 30 years, it has been a Local Ecumenical Partnership (LEP) incorporating both Anglican and Methodist traditions.
