The United Benefice of Shiplake, Dunsden associates three churches in South Oxfordshire - St Peter and St Paul Shiplake, All Saints Dunsden and Saint Margaret's Harpsden - located in rural South Oxfordshire. While each has its own character and community, they are brought together by a team of clergy led by the Rector, Reverend Robert Thewsey. Services and other activities are held at each of the churches according to a schedule common to all.
Our Benefice is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor :
