The South Tamar Mission Community is a group of 4 Church of England parishes with 6 historic church buildings. You can find us in the rolling farmland of the Tamar Valley AONB, broadly between the River Tamar and the River Lyd. We have 2 primary schools in the area, and our schools volunteers also work in another on our borders. All our volunteers have DBS checks and undergo regular safeguarding training. We also have a strong pastoral team who work with people in local residential care settings, and trained Anna Chaplains specialising in spiritual support for the older age range. As well as a strong team of volunteers, we have a full time vicar - Priest-in-Charge, Reverend Gill George. She is supported by our Local Lay Minister, Richard Searight, and a retired priest, Revd Canon Tim Thompson.
