Become a Parish Representative

Looking for a way to get involved in Pact’s work supporting some of the most vulnerable people in our society? Don’t have too much time and energy to commit? Becoming a Pact Parish Representative could be perfect for you!
Parish Rep

Our Parish Reps act as a point of contact within a parish community, working with us to raise awareness of what life is like for people affected by the criminal justice system. If you are fairly settled in your local parish and know your priest, then we would love to have you join our friendly parish rep network. 

What's involved?

As a Pact Parish Rep, we will keep in touch with you, supporting you to:

  • Speak with your parish priest and parish office to encourage promotion and support for Pact’s work
  • Ensure that posters and other resources are displayed
  • Feed back to Pact’s Faith in Action team any concerns, queries, or ideas from you and your parish 

Our Faith in Action team will provide you with an introduction to Pact and our work, plus invitations to regular online gatherings, and all the resources you need to keep prisoners and their families in parishioners’ thoughts and prayers.

No-one can face life in isolation…We need a community that supports and helps us.
