Cardiff Deanery Explained

The Cardiff Deanery is a Roman Catholic deanery in the Archdiocese of Cardiff that oversees several churches in the city of Cardiff.^[1] It replaced the previous Cardiff East Deanery and Cardiff West Deanery, combining the two into one. The dean is centred at the Parish of St Mary's Canton.^[2]

Churches

The parishes in the deanery have been split into 'clusters'. These churches are not being merged but will be working together to make sure that all parishioners in the cluster are served sufficiently. As part of the archdiocese reorganisations, various churches were put into the same parish.^[3]
