The deanery has a mix of suburban, market town and village parishes and is located in the south of the diocese, within the archdeaconry of Bournemouth. The life of the deanery includes an active Synod and a friendly and supportive Chapter. We work together to find ways to enable all the people of our parishes to live out their calling in our shared mission and ministry and encourage all our stipendiary clergy to be active within the deanery so that their skills and gifts can be used to build up the whole deanery.
