What is DEANERY SYNOD?The Deanery Synod is part of the way the Church of England gives people at different levels a chance to discuss key issues and organise the church's ministry and mission.

Deanery Synod sits between the parishes with their Parochial Church Councils (PCCs) and the full diocese, with its Diocesan Synod. It is convened by an Area Dean Team and Lay Chair and consists of all the licensed Clergy in the Deanery and lay people elected by the parishes at their Annual Parish Church Meeting. The lay members serve for three years.
The Synod meets four times a year, visiting different parts of the Deanery, and its business is organised by a small Core Deanery Leadership Team (CDLT)
which has both Clergy and lay members.
