Welcome to the HR pages!
Here you’ll find a range of guidance notes, forms, and templates to help parishes with employing their own staff. Feel free to adapt them so they fit your local needs.
We’re always adding and updating resources, so do check back regularly to see what’s new. And if there’s something you’d find especially helpful to have here, the People Team would love to hear from you.
Just a quick note: while everything is accurate at the time of writing, these documents aren’t a substitute for formal legal advice, and the LDBF can’t take responsibility for any errors or omissions. If you’d like tailored guidance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the People Team — they’re here to support you.

You’ll also find resource pages [just over in the sub‑menu to the left] with helpful information on managing people, pay and pensions, and recruitment. These pages include sample documents and templates that you’re welcome to use and adapt to suit your needs.
