Priest-in-Charge and Rural Pioneer Priest, Borderlinks Parishes –  a wonderful opportunity to serve in a welcoming group of rural parishes

The Borderlink Benefice is a group of eight rural parishes along the south bank of the River Wye, and close to the border between England and Wales. Our small communities (the largest is 400 people, the smallest 77) have developed from the almost exclusively agricultural life of the early 20th century, and our parishes are varied and vibrant. The new priest will be ably supported by a committed Deanery Chapter and active lay team.

We are located near to Hay-on-Wye which gives easy access to the world famous Literary festival, Brecon and Brecon Beacons National Park. The Benefice sits at the top end of Herefordshire Golden Valley.
