Disability and Inclusion

The Diocesan Disability Team supports parishes as they seek to develop and extend their mission and ministry with anyone with disabilities or access needs. If you would like advice or support, or are just wondering where to start, please get in touch!

On these webpages, you will find useful links such as where to look for funding, resources and charities that can offer help and support, the national access audit which can help you assess where your church is currently at with regards to accessibility and inclusion, and information about the training and events that we are running. Click here to download the Diocesan Disability Strategy

If you are interested in becoming a Parish Disability Officer, or would like to know more about what it involves and other ways you can help on the ground, get in touch with one of our team, or come along to one of our training sessions! You can also sign up to our newsletter here. 

Please contact the team using the email address: accessibility@leeds.anglican.org or phone 0113 2000 540.
