Bishop Dakin and Winchester. A Diocese in Crisis? – Surviving Church May 26, 2021 by Fulcrum My own personal knowledge of the Winchester Diocese is slight. Apart from once leading a two day residential workshop for the Continuing Ministerial Programme some twenty-five years ago, I have had no other dealings with the Diocese. Nevertheless, I find myself wanting to understand more fully what is behind the announcement several days ago that the Bishop of Winchester is ‘stepping back for six weeks from his duties’.
