The Diocese of Bristol is a non-for-profit administrative area of the Church of England for over one million people living across Bristol, South Gloucestershire, North Wiltshire and Swindon.

It covers a diverse and contrasting range of contexts and brings together over 200 churches, 70 church schools, a range of chaplaincies and networks of faith seeking to be a church for and serving all people in all places.
