Synodal Process: Questionnaire Results

Thank you to everyone who completed the parish questionnaire as part of the listening phase of the Synodal Process. A total of 154 responses were received – 64 questionnaires were completed online and 90 paper copies were returned.

Questionnaire responses from the parish have now been summarised and passed on to the Diocese. Your responses have also been shared with the parish priests and parish council. Please find a summary of the questionnaire responses together with a selection of parishioners’ comments and suggestions below .

An exhaustive list of all the comments and suggestions made by parishioners is also available from the parish office on request. Parishioners have asked for this questionnaire summary to be further analysed so that responses can be viewed on the basis of age and gender. This analysis will be available on the parish website soon.

A children’s questionnaire, devised by the Diocese, has also been completed by pupils at St Mary’s R.C School. These results will be published at the end of March.
