Who are we - and what do we do?
We:
- Promote awareness, discussion and action throughout the Leeds diocese about the ‘Just’ Gospel response to the key issues of today such as Climate Change, racism, poverty and conflict
- Advise the bishop of Leeds in respect of key Social Justice issues
- Celebrate the work that so many people in the diocese are already doing by linking their faith with action for social justice
We are an integral part of the Diocese of Leeds and also a member of the National Justice and Peace Network.
