Church of England Contact Management System

Clergy and Lay officers may request access to the Diocesan database which holds their contact details.

There are instructions for how to register an account for database below (Database – Requesting Access) and then some top tips for how to use the database (Database – Getting Started).

The database can be accessed through the Church of England Portal (select ‘Contact Management System’) along with other services such as Parish Buying, A Church Near You and Parish Returns.
