Root / Catholic Church / The Church in England and Wales / Dioceses
The basic administrative unit of the Catholic Church is the diocese - an area presided over by a bishop, sometimes with auxiliary bishops to help him. There are 22 dioceses in England and Wales. These are divided into parishes, the local communities of Catholics. There are also two dioceses covering the whole country for specific groups: the Bishopric of the Forces and the Apostolic Exarchate for Ukrainians.
There are also five Provinces in England and Wales: Birmingham, Cardiff, Liverpool, Southwark and Westminster.
