The Church of Scotland is one of Scotland's largest charities and most active voluntary organisations. We have over 300,000 members, with more regularly involved in local congregations and our work. Within the organisation, we have around 800 ministers serving in parishes and chaplaincies, supported by professional and administrative staff. Most of our parishes are in Scotland, but there are also congregations in England, across Europe and in the rest of the world, where we also work with many partner churches. The Church of Scotland works with communities worldwide. As one of the largest organisations in Scotland, our work has a pivotal role in Scottish society and indeed religion throughout the world.
