The Leek Team Ministry in the Church of England Diocese of Lichfield was established in 1979, the Parishes and Benefices of St Edward, All Saints and St Luke uniting together at that time. The Parish of St Matthew united with the new Parish of Leek in 1983 to create the present Parish and Benefice of Leek and Meerbrook.

There is great diversity within the Team with space for almost all kinds of Christian spirituality. We value the distinctive contribution made by each congregation. Each district is responsible for its own mission and ministry but, where appropriate, we pool resources and work together.

The team of ministers consists of the minister of each district i.e.. The Team Rector and the two Team Vicars.  Each of the four former parishes is designated a District with it’s own elected District Church Council of the team. Whereas the PCC is the legal entity for the Parish, various functions relating to the Districts, are delegated to the DCC as appropriate. 

The town of Leek is set in the beautiful countryside of the Staffordshire Moorlands in the UK.
