About us
Who we are
The Northampton Roman Catholic Diocesan Trust is a registered charity (234091) and serves the Catholic community in Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and the part of Berkshire which lies to the north of the river Thames (Slough).
The diocese is made up of 69 parishes and 27 mass centres, divided into 13 pastoral areas. In addition to the parishes there are several curial departments. Employees in both the parishes and the curial departments are employed by the Diocese itself as the main legal entity.
The Diocese is involved in many different areas of life. Not just in parishes, but in 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 much in need of the Truth and Love of Christ.
