Eccleshall Parish Community Survey: Strategic Vision 2026-30

We’re developing a new Vision and Strategy for Holy Trinity and St Chad’s, setting out how we grow as a church and serve Eccleshall over the next five years.

As members of the church community, your views really matter. This is about shaping a direction that reflects who we are today and who we want to become together.

We’ve shared the draft vision document alongside this survey. If you have a few minutes, we’d really encourage you to take a look as it will give helpful context and bring the priorities to life.

This survey is not about perfect wording or detail. It’s about whether the overall direction feels right, what resonates, and what we might need to refine.

It should take no more than 10 minutes of your time to complete. Thank you for participating -your input will directly shape the final version which we will share later in the year.
