The new Eco Church survey launches

It’s here! We’re thrilled to introduce our brand-new Eco Church Survey!

Now in its ninth year, Eco Church continues to support churches across England and Wales in taking meaningful action for climate and nature. At its core, Eco Church is about people and a practical survey that guides churches, step by step, on their journey towards change.

Our newly launched survey offers greater flexibility, ensuring that every church, regardless of size, setting, or resources, can take action and make a real impact. What’s new in the survey?

New Pathways

A key highlight of the new survey is its inclusive pathways, designed to support a wider range of church settings. Whether you’re part of a cathedral, a church with little or no land, or one without a building, the updated survey ensures everyone can get involved.

Refined Categories

We’ve expanded our survey categories, strengthening Worship and Teaching. This category now includes vital topics such as eco-anxiety, lament, and pastoral care, equipping churches with resources to navigate these pressing issues within their communities.

Built for Today’s Climate Challenges

This updated survey reflects the urgency and complexity of the climate and biodiversity crises, and is designed to match the scale of action needed. It stretches churches further than the old survey, yet still provides a framework that’s both ambitious and achievable.
