Bishop Mark spoke at the ACAT Conference & AGM, which was held in Bury, earlier this month. With encouraging words like these, it is no surprise his keynote address was so well received by the attendees.

Churches take an immense amount of pressure off the NHS & provide essential support services that it would cost an extra £8.4 billion a year to deliver. This is equivalent to nearly 4% of UK health spending. It would be the same cost as employing 230,000 nurses. 2/
