Honiton Deanery
The Diocese of Exeter is divided into areas called deaneries. Uplyme Church is part of the Honiton Deanery here in East Devon. The Deanery has regular meetings called Deanery Synods. Through the vicar and our Deanery Representatives, we support the wider work of the Deanery, collaborating on projects and contributing to the life of the church.
