The Church in Scotland is being encouraged by the authorities in Rome to look at the structures and resources which underpin our mission in this country.

Specifically, we are being asked to consider whether the number and size of our dioceses are still fit for purpose and/or whether there are better ways in which our eight dioceses can share their resources and expertise.

The bishops of Scotland would like to offer all the faithful an opportunity to share their insights on this.

You are invited to complete an online survey to share your thoughts, which takes about 5 minutes, before the 31st May 2026 –  https://forms.gle/aYQwdP9RqF93fZgN8
