Synod and the National Church
As part of Diocesan Synod's work, it can submit motions for debate to the Church of England's General Synod, allowing us to help shape the conversation and direction of the national church. In the past these have included motions on tackling inequality, blood and organ donation and more. A full list of motions submitted to General Synod can be found here.
