Photos from the day conference at Portsmouth Cathedral, led by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams

Rowan Williams speaks to 300 clergy and community leaders in Portsmouth's Anglican cathedral

Many of the points he made were practical suggestions for improving community life, which were well received

Participants split into small groups to discuss what the archbishop has said

In those groups, links were made between clergy and community leaders that will lead to positive practical outcomes to improve community life 

The archbishop also spoke to new vicars over lunch - to discover what life is like on the frontline of parish ministry

It was a significant day in the life of our Anglican diocese to have so many clergy and community leaders able to meet together to talk about improving community life
