The Roman Catholic Diocese of Middlesbrough

Parishes

The initial stages of the New Diocesan Pastoral Plan inaugurated in 1999 involved the division of the Diocese into three Territorial Vicariates, North, South and Central and the sub-division of these into Pastoral Areas. These Pastoral Areas, or clusters of parishes, replace the former deanery structure and are organised in such a way that collaborative ministry between parishes, between priests and people, and between people of neighbouring parishes can be enabled and encouraged.
