Marking Racial Justice Sunday 2026
Each year, our diocese marks Racial Justice Sunday. This is an important day to recognise our common humanity and the love and compassion that we share between us as diverse children of God.
Read the storyThe Energy Footprint Tool (EFT) has been released for 2025 as the Church of England journeys towards net zero carbon emissions by 2030. You can already start filling in the form.
We encourage all churches to fill in a form. It’s designed to help your church measure and manage its energy usage.
By filling out the form, you’ll be providing crucial data on your electricity, gas, and oil consumption. This information will help us identify where we can improve energy efficiency and you can even secure future funding for your own decarbonisation projects.

We’re calling on all parishes to jump on board and fill out the form. It’s really easy to use, and there is plenty of support available if you need a hand.
Plus, by participating, you’ll be contributing to our environmental goals and gaining valuable insights for future sustainability efforts.

We’ve created a handy guide with everything in one place to help you along as you grab your energy details and fill in the form:
