Governance and Policies
Cranmer Hall is an integral part of St John’s College, which is a recognized college of the world-leading Durham University. St John’s is fully embedded within the University whilst retaining independent governance and finances as a charity and company. St John’s is governed by its College Council, which holds overall responsibility for overseeing the life and ministry of Cranmer Hall. The Council exercises much of this oversight through Cranmer Committee. Here you can see the membership of Cranmer Committee, and access important policies relating to data handling, complaints, and safeguarding.
