  • Bishop of Gloucester, Rachel Treweek
    General Synod Safeguarding presentation from Bishop of Gloucester, Rachel Treweek, February 2018 I’m aware that when we talk about safeguarding it engages our hearts, our minds and our guts, and depending on our own experiences, our antennae will be set at different angles. So I hope that in our time of questions there will be opportunity for people to clarify what they’ve heard. I have been asked to say something brief about the Diocese of Gloucester and I look forward to contributing more in response to questions. It was not long after I arrived in Gloucester that Peter Ball, a previous Bishop of Gloucester was finally convicted of horrific abuse - You have the Gibb report (GS Misc. 1172). As I have previously said publicly, I am deeply ashamed of that legacy and deeply sorry; just as I am deeply ashamed and sorry about the abuse people have suffered across the Church which has so often been compounded by wholly inadequate response and a lack of compassion and understanding… .. I do believe that in the present I have the privilege of working with a committed and professional team in Gloucester. And that is not intended to sound defensive. The starting place is the big picture of the good news of the Kingdom of God and the truth that every person is a unique individual with a name, made in the image of God. Transformation, flourishing and reconciliation is at the heart of who God is. Yet we live amid prolific broken relationship including abuse of children and adults, neglect, misused power..

  • The Rt Revd Rachel Treweek
    The Rt Revd Rachel Treweek Our ref: DB/10/20 Bishop of Gloucester The Bishops’ Office 13 October 2020 2 College Green, Gloucester, GL1 2LR [email protected] Tel: 01452 835511 Dear Sisters and Brothers Last week the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse, IICSA, published its overarching investigation report into the Anglican Church in England and Wales, highlighting the failures of the Church of England regarding child sexual abuse. It is not comfortable reading, and neither should it be. This report brings together in one place the shocking failures of the Church, not least in often being more concerned with protecting reputation than focusing on the care of victims and survivors of abuse and responding with compassion. In many ways the sickening findings of this report come as no surprise given the content of the 2017 Gibb report investigating the Church’s response to Peter Ball’s abuse, followed in 2019 by the IICSA report on Peter Ball. I spoke out with lament and shame following these publications and now this final IICSA report highlights our failure as a Church to respond swiftly to some of the key recommendations made, which have been repeatedly voiced by victims and survivors of abuse. Listening, admittance of failure and expression of shock and sorrow are important but they are not enough. Action is required. Therefore, while I am glad that the report acknowledges significant changes which have been made over the years, it also shines a bright light on the systemic failures of governance structures and decision-making. This has undoubtedly hindered the much-needed action being taken swiftly at national level, including a process of satisfactory redress for victims and survivors of abuse, and the need for independence to be appropriately present in policies and procedures.

    STRATEGY, MISSION AND PEOPLE IN A RURAL DIOCESE A CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF THE DIOCESE OF GLOUCESTER 1863-1923 BRIAN KNIGHT A thesis submitted to the University of Gloucestershire in accordance with the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Humanities August, 2002 11 Strategy, Mission and People in a Rural Diocese A critical examination of the Diocese of Gloucester 1863-1923 Abstract A study of the relationship between the people of Gloucestershire and the Church of England diocese of Gloucester under two bishops, Charles John Ellicott and Edgar Charles Sumner Gibson who presided over a mainly rural diocese, predominantly of small parishes with populations under 2,000. Drawing largely on reports and statistics from individual parishes, the study recalls an era in which the class structure was a dominant factor. The framework of the diocese, with its small villages, many of them presided over by a squire, helped to perpetuate a quasi-feudal system which made sharp distinctions between leaders and led. It is shown how for most of this period Church leaders deliberately chose to ally themselves with the power and influence of the wealthy and cultured levels of society and ostensibly to further their interests. The consequence was that they failed to understand and alienated a large proportion of the lower orders, who were effectively excluded from any involvement in the Church's affairs. Both bishops over-estimated the influence of the Church on the general population but with the twentieth century came the realisation that the working man and women of all classes had qualities which could be adapted to the Church's service and a wider lay involvement was strongly encouraged.

  • Written Evidence from the Rt Revd Rachel Treweek (The Lord Bishop
    Written evidence from The Rt Revd Rachel Treweek (The Lord Bishop of Gloucester, Anglican Bishop for Prisons in England and Wales at Church of England) Justice Committee Call for Evidence: Reducing the number of women in custody Submission date 7 June 2021 Background: The Rt Revd Rachel Treweek, Bishop of Gloucester was both the first woman appointed a diocesan bishop in the Church of England and first female Lord Spiritual. As Bishop for the female estate from 2016, she has advocated for more community-based provision and a trauma-informed, whole-systems approach to women in the criminal justice system and those at risk of offending. Bishop Rachel is President of the Nelson Trust, which runs Women’s Centres in Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Somerset. An officer of the All Party-Parliamentary Group on Women in the Penal System, Bishop Rachel stands with others continuing to push for the full implementation of the Corston Report recommendations, and now the Female Offender Strategy. Since October 2020, Bishop Rachel has been Anglican Bishop for Prisons in England and Wales. As well as prison visits, where they’ve been possible under COVID-19 restrictions, she has talked with a great number of Chaplains and charities working in and around the criminal justice system, as well as professionals across every aspect of the CJS, and HMPPS. 1. What progress has been made on commitments to reduce the number of women in custody since the publication of the Female Offender Strategy? I note with disappointment that little progress has been made in realising the aims of the Female Offender Strategy.

  • The Evolution of George Hakewill's Apologie Or
    The Evolution of George Hakewill’s Apologie or Declaration of the Power and Providence of God, 1627-1637: Academic Contexts, and Some New Angles from Manuscripts William Poole George Hakewill’s An Apologie of the Power and Providence of God in the Government of the World stands in the first rank of philosophical and literary achievement in the early Caroline period. Hakewill first published his long text in 1627, but soon released a slightly expanded edition in 1630 and a greatly expanded one in 1635, adding or Declaration after An Apologie to the title of both new editions. (The revision in the title partially shifts the generic claim from apologia, literally a speech in defence, towards the more affirmative declaratio or declaration.) The first edition was printed by John Lichfield and William Turner, printers to the University of Oxford, and Turner printed the second and third editions too, to be sold by Robert Allott in London. Hakewill’s great work was therefore very much an Oxford publication, and he included in his later editions many testimonials from prominent Oxford academicians. The work grew by accretion from around 500 pages in 1627 to over 1000 in 1635. Discussions of The Apologie have always treated it as a solely vernacular and printed phenomenon, a text in the vein of Robert Burton’s Anatomy of Melancholy (1621), and a prompt for Sir Thomas Browne’s Pseudodoxia Epidemica (1646). All three texts, we may note, went through many authorial revisions. Hakewill proposed that in both the natural and human realms the world underwent cycles of decline and increase, and that therefore modern scholars and writers should not feel necessarily inferior to their ancient forbears.
