Diocesan Environmental Task Group

The Diocesan Environmental Task Group (DETG) has been created to advise and support parishes in matters of the environment and sustainability.

Members of the Diocesan Environmental Task Group (DETG) have produced the Ely Diocese Eco-Plan, offered for use to parishes, with the support of the Bishop. It provides tools to help parishes assess their environmental response to date and to integrate creation care action planning into the heart of their parish’s life and mission. The DETG asks that every parish makes adequate space and time to discuss this Eco-Plan in their PCC and to build ambitious creation care objectives into the ongoing life and mission of their parish.

This Plan is a framework which provides wide scope for the drawing up of different priorities according to the varying context and circumstances each parish finds itself in. There are many resources and much knowledge in the Diocese and elsewhere which can be drawn on to help with creation care action planning, so parishes do not have to re-invent the wheel. Information about resources is given at the end of this document.

There are three main areas of work, the contacts for each are included below.

Biodiversity and Churchyards
