The Wellington and West Buckland Benefice is a new creation with the arrival of Rev Colin Simpson. Both churches worked together to create our profile, and to appoint him/arrange his installation service. We share the same treasurer, and have a joint safeguarding team. Two of the PCC working groups at St John's have members from West Buckland as well, - The communications working group and the Worship group. We are determined to work closely together as much as possible and keep a fair balance between village and town.
