With grateful thanks for her ministry, prayers of blessing for the future and also with sadness, we announce that Karen Sly’s employment as Diocesan Deaf Development Worker will be ending with effect from 30 January 2025.
This announcement follows a recent diocesan budget review which has necessitated a number of staffing reductions in different areas of diocesan operations and ministry to reduce the current budget deficit.
British Sign Language (BSL) interpretation support for the Good Shepherd Church for the deaf and hard of hearing will, however, continue to be provided to enable the ongoing ministry of Revd Rowena Bass as Chaplain to the Good Shepherd Church.
Anyone affected by this announcement who would value support is welcome to contact Rowena on rowenabass11@gmail.com or Leicester Archdeacon Richard on Richard.Worsfold@LeicesterCofE.org
