Advising other clergy on women's issues.
Keeping in touch with the wider church e.g. NADAWM (National Association of Diocesan Advisers for Women in Ministry) and nominating women to attend the Windsor Consultations for Women Clergy each year.

Being alongside women with ministerial difficulties.
Encouraging a wholeness of priestly ministry with both men and women working happily alongside each other.
