Diocesan Advisory Committee
The Diocesan Advisory Committee advises on matters affecting churches and places of worship, for example the granting of faculties; architecture; archaeology; art and history of places of worship; the use and care of places of worship and their contents; and the care of churchyards.

The work of DAC is vital if the Church is to keep the freedom to handle its own planning consents and so protect the role of churches as places used for worship.

The Diocese provides expert Organ Advisers free to parishes, including those who can help with non-traditional organs; a Bells Adviser, a Clocks Adviser; as well as access to national specialist advice.
