Supporting our Sick and Retired Clergy
Our clergy usually retire at 75 years of age, although some continue in active ministry into their 80s, whilst others are forced to retire due to ill-health. The Archdiocese of Southwark has a duty of care for their well-being after a lifetime of service: if you would like to consider supporting our clergy at their time of need you can read about the Clergy Support Fund and donate here
