SOLENT PASTORAL AREA (SPA) - An Update There has been a lot happening “behind-the-scenes” in support of our journey towards implementing a new parish in the Solent Area by September 2026. One initiative now being rolled out is the joint Baptism Preparation Programme which is being centrally co-ordinated and delivered. The website will be used to give parents across all four parishes access to all the information they require to register onto the next programme. Use of this online form will significantly reduce the administrative workload and is being run as a pilot for cooperation on other programmes. You can see the new Baptism Preparation page here: https://www.catholicchurchfareham.org.uk/ baptism-preparation-1
