Rural Hub Issues

In partnership with the Royal Welsh Agricultural Society and the Welsh Assembly Government, the Rural Life Advisors of the Church in Wales have establish a programme of learning to encourage and support engagement with the challenging issues of rurality which face Wales in the future.

The final two seminars of the Church in Wales Rural Issues Hub are fast approaching, and if you haven’t already booked in please contact Lisa Martin at Cathedral Road lisamartin@churchinwales.org.uk or Rev'd Tim Clement to do so. 
Both seminars will be held at the Royal Welsh Showground, Builth Wells – starting at 10.30am and finishing at 3.30pm. Lunch is provided. 

The programme is a series of seminars on a variety of topics based on feedback from clerics from across Wales. This programme will provide opportunities for making connections between strategic policy issues and local realities, perceptions and needs, reflecting real concerns about learning and training for those ministering in rural areas at a time of change and new challenges.  It is hoped that the seminars will resource not only clerics and laity of the Church in Wales and other churches, but also people from different organisations and communities involved with rural life.

              The seminars will be open to all who are interested, and will take place at the Royal Welsh Showground.  Seminars will cost £12/hd (payable to ‘RBCIW’ at 39, Cathedral Road, Cardiff, CF11 9XF) Reclaimable from the diocese.

Programme:

  • 23rd March 2012            10.30-3.30
    Science, technology, engineering, maths, medicine – the ethical issues

For more information and booking form please contact Rev’d Tim Clement
