Enter our web site Welcome to the website for the Diocese of Northampton

Our Diocese covers an important part of our country: from the east Midlands in Northamptonshire through Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire with large towns such as Milton Keynes and Luton, right down to Slough and the area of Berkshire that lies north of the Thames. In many ways we lie at the heart of England and like anything living our Diocese is growing and changing. Many people from other countries and cultures are becoming part and parcel of the life of our region and our parishes and schools.

As a result the Diocese is involved in many different areas of life: our parishes, clergy, religious and people touch the lives of many people, both within and outside the Catholic community. From schools, through to hospitals and prisons; working with people with disabilities, and with the young and the old; promoting the value of family and of marriage; caring for the poor, the homeless and those who live at the margins of society; handing on our Catholic Faith to each generation and reaching out to our society so in need of the Truth and Love of Christ.

This website gives a window to all of this. I hope it will help you to get to know us and the work that we do. And I hope that you will feel the welcome that the Church in the Diocese of Northampton wishes to offer you.
