The Church Buildings Council (CBC) has issued statutory guidance and templates to be used when preparing a Statement of Significance and a Statement of Need. The guidance explains what these statements are, their purpose, and how to write them. You can find all the information on the Church of England website here.
To help you write your statements, we have combined the CBC's two separate templates into a single one which covers both significance and need along with additional guidance on how to write them. You can download the template here.
