  1. ‘NETWORK SUFFOLK’ – PUBLISHING GUIDELINES

The main objective of the ‘Network Suffolk’ website is to make a contribution towards the unity of the entire Christian community across Suffolk by helping it to connect, communicate, build relationships and work together.

We aim to report without fear or favour on matters relating to the broad Suffolk Christian community and anyone who would define themselves as being part of that community.

The ‘Network Suffolk’ website strives to maintain an independent, balanced stance, giving everyone the chance to have their say, as long as it is put in a fair and reasonable way and complies with our terms & conditions of use for the website.

We do not take positions on matters of doctrine, but aim to reflect and report on what the different elements of the Christian community, who accede to the Nicene Creed, do and believe.

By carrying an article on a particular topic or event we are not endorsing it, merely reporting and reflecting what members of the Christian community are doing or saying.
