Welcome to the NDN

The National Deaneries Network (NDN) is an open network of people interested in the work of Deaneries.  Our members include Lay Chairs, Treasurers, Secretaries, Area/Rural Deans, Archdeacons and the odd Bishop …

Membership is free and gives you access to our library of resources, including videos from previous conferences and briefings.  We are keen to resource Dioceses and the National Church in their work with Deaneries – and give Deaneries a voice on the national stage.

Three members of the Steering Group are also elected members of General Synod, and many GS members are involved in some way.  We have been engaged with consultations and raised our voice in debates.

Deanery Briefings have been running since the first COVID-19 lockdown and have been attended by over 2,000 people from 42 dioceses.

As a result of lockdowns our first national conference for five years was in May 2023. Videos and resources from the conference will be available shortly.
