ABOUT THE COUNCIL FOR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY“In the spirit of prayer, love and humanity, we commit ourselves to work for a just and inclusive society”. The work of the Council for Social Responsibility (CSR) is rooted in the Gospel. Our Lord's command to love our neighbour means that we care for those in our communities. We are also required to have concern for justice, compassion and the needs of all others. The Council aims to further the Church's mission, both to those who have no contact with the Church and to those who are marginalised in society. A vital aspect of this work is to work in partnership with parishes, voluntary and statutory agencies and our local communities. We also serve the community by co-ordinating two Clergy Emergency Response Teams (CERTs), one in the north of the Diocese, covering south Shropshire and the other covering Herefordshire. The CERTs are on standby in the event of a major incident occurring within the Diocese and we work closely with the Emergency Planning Units of the local authorities in both counties.
