Glebe Committee

The Glebe Committee deals with the glebe properties vested in the Board under the Church Property Measure 2018. Members are appointed by the Board of Finance and it meets 4 times a year during the day.  The overall aim of the Committee is to maintain and increase total returns from the diocesan glebe by actively managing the glebe portfolio.  The diocesan glebe estate comprises around 3,300 acres of agricultural land and is managed by the glebe agents for the benefit of the clergy stipends fund, so the glebe holdings are an important resource, supporting ministry in the Diocese.
