ST. NATHY'S DIOCESAN TRUST

St. Nathy's Diocesan Trust is the custodial body that looks after the temporal assets of the Roman Catholic Dioceses of Achonry and Elphin. Based in Ballaghaderreen, County Roscommon, the Trust oversees the legal, administrative and maintenance aspects of the churches, schools and other properties owned by the two dioceses, ensuring that these assets are managed responsibly and sustainably.

In addition to property stewardship, the Trust supports a range of pastoral initiatives - from the Bishop's regular messages and Lenten-at-home retreats to youth programmes such as the John Paul II Awards. It also coordinates safeguarding efforts across the dioceses, providing a dedicated office and senior contacts to protect clergy, staff and volunteers.

Through its combined focus on sound property management, community-building ministries and robust safeguarding, St. Nathy's Diocesan Trust plays a vital role in enabling the dioceses to serve parishioners and the wider community throughout the west of Ireland.
