OCRH was founded in 2004 by the Anglican churches in Otley Deanery, part of the then Diocese of Bradford. From that original partnership we have developed links with the local Methodist circuit as well as supporting a variety of churches across the Diocese of Leeds. We registered as an independent charity in 2016 and are managed by a board of trustees.
The Hub Manager position is currently vacant. Further information will be posted here as soon as decisions have been made on the role.
There is a Board of Trustees, drawn from supporting churches, who are responsible for governance and meet regularly to oversee the work.
