Mothers Union - Diocese of Hereford
About Us
In the Diocese of Hereford we aim to give practical help to assist families, whoever they are. We work both around the world and around the corner
It has been said that The Mothers’ Union is one of the country’s best kept secrets. You never hear our name mentioned when news comes through about famine and disaster and war torn countries… Why is that? .......... Because we are there already!
We have branches throughout the diocese, and you're always welcome to join us. For your nearest branch, see the information below, or contact our diocesan office.
