Simeon's Trustees is a leading and long-standing Church of England patronage trust, with patronage interests in 165 benefices across 33 dioceses. A number of benefices are team ministries and so we have an involvement in 191 appointments.

Founded in 1836 by Charles Simeon (who is commemorated in the Church of England Calendar on 13 November), Simeon's Trustees are guided by his charge to his founding trustees and their successors, for the benefit of the parishes in our care.

The trust is thought of as representing the evangelical tradition in the Church of England, but Simeon's Charge does not set out a 'party' position, and we have patronage interests in benefices in a range of traditions, which we respect.

Our main role is when a benefice is in vacancy, working with PCCs, Dioceses and, for a significant number of our benefices, other patrons, towards the appointment of a new minister.

However, in addition to involvement at other key times, we give ongoing prayer support for our parishes and clergy.

Supporting Simeon’s

If you would like to support our work financially please email Ann Brown (click on her name or use ann.brown@simeons.org.uk) for BACS details.

We rely on donations to enable us to carry out our work. We welcome donations from our churches and from individuals.


Unconscious Bias

We have produced this short video which we hope PCCs and particularly those appointed as Parish Representatives will watch.
